Conscious Projections drew together the work of innovative Naarm/Melbourne based multi-media artists Alison Bennett, Roberta Joy Rich, Jonathan Homsey and Diimpa.
Uniting these artists is a tendency to explore internal spiritual, cultural and gender identities and to present these externally through video works, projection and sound. In this way, conscious personal choices regarding self-expression are magnified into the public sphere, paving the way for dialogues on diverse experiences of the self.
In their own lives, the artists have navigated intersections of queerness, gender, race and neurodiversity. These experiences now inform a conscious approach, developed in each of their practices, to represent the world as they encounter it. Through divergences from social norms, the artists offer alternative views and actively reframe the possible.
