2016 Adelaide Biennial of Australian Art: Magic Object

Are artists the last magicians? Drawing inspiration from the ‘Wunderkammer’, those rooms or cabinets of wonder dedicated to the display of magical objects, the 2016 Adelaide Biennial of Australian Art champions the contemporary artist as conjuror.

Heather B. Swann: Bone

In this exhibition, Heather B. Swann lays bare one of her central preoccupations: wildness and containment, and the nexus or relationship between the beast and the body. Animals appear often in the artist's work; creatures both wild and domesticated, cunning and dumb, with their physical features refined or intensified, abstracted or hybridised.
