Mitchel Cumming: Thing / Language

The annual exchange between Lilac City Studio (Sydney/Gadigal) and Blindside ARI (Melbourne/Naarm) hopes to foster a cross pollination between the two cities & their respective ARI communities. For the program's second year, Sydney artist & ARI director (KNULP, Sydney/Gadigal) Mitchel Cumming will be hosted in residence at Blindside for the summer studio

Mitchel Cumming is an artist and poet living and working on unceded Gadigal and Bidjigal land. His work frequently involves the establishment and/or manipulation of exhibition contexts: a process in which elements generally considered supplementary to artistic production become instead a primary material.

Cumming's exhibition THING / LANGUAGE, is a culmination of his time in the residency and opens on Thursday 12th January 2023.

Curators: Elena Tory-Henderson & Siena White

Opening Event: 6-8pm Thursday 12th January 2023
