Cosmology in Me :: Michael Philp
18 Apr - 23 May 2015
Gallery 1
Born in 1966 in Tweed Heads, Michael Philp is a Minjungbal man, a tribe of the Bundjalung nation. His father was a white fisherman and his mother, a Murri woman. Philp’s lyrical, poignant works are about experiences that have affected him and this exhibition brings together two bodies of work from different periods of his life. The grouping shows us the constant themes of memory and history, the change within Michael as a person, as well as the development of his own form of expression in relating the interconnectedness of identity, country and the wider universe.
