VERNON AH KEE

透過文本、影音、照片和繪圖創作，Vernon Ah Kee從當代原住民生活經驗的角度批判澳洲文化。他的作品反思充斥在過往原住民肖像畫中的原始浪漫與異國情調，並將澳洲原住民從博物館與科學記錄中的「他者」重置於當代真實的時空。

Vernon Ah Kee’s conceptual text pieces, videos, photographs, and drawings form a critique of Australian culture from the perspective of the Aboriginal experience of contemporary life. Ah Kee’s works respond to the history of the romantic and exoticised portraiture of ‘primitives’, and effectively reposition the Aboriginal in Australia from an ‘othered thing’, anchored in museum and scientific records to a contemporary people inhabiting real and current spaces and time.

MANDY QUADRIO

Mandy Quadrio的創作類型包含雕塑、裝置藝術、照片與複合媒材等。藉由創作，她致力消除與原住民身份認同相關的種族主義分類、歷史否定和被強加的隱身。她的作品和創作歷程援引抹除與現身的概念，圍繞著爭議性的澳洲殖民史與塔斯馬尼亞原民性的權力關係。

Mandy’s artistic practice encompasses sculpture, installation, photography, and mixed media. Through her practice Quadrio works to unfix racist categorisations, historic denials and imposed invisibility in relation to Aboriginal identity. Both her artwork and process of art making reference notions of erasure and presence in relation to socio-political realities around contested Australian colonial histories and power relations surrounding Tasmanian Aboriginality.
