Tales of Colour features Arabic-Australian artists from Western Sydney whose work dissects contemporary migrant perspectives from the personal to the political. They express a connection between two worlds - born in one and settled in another - in which cultural symbols are shared and transformed. Through the works we encounter ancient civilisations, folklore and personal stories that coalesce in a contemporary intercultural dialogue of universal significance. A public program featuring artist talks, workshops and a seminar will accompany the exhibition.
