​The term 'cultural hegemony' has often been used to describe the assimilation into, or displacement by, one system of cultural reference by another. From antiquity to the present day, closer observation reveals less a contest of competing narratives and mythologies than a layering of symbol systems through a process of interaction and dialogue. Abstracted Mythologies aims to replicate this process of transcultural synthesis through staging a similar dialogue of multiple cultural perspectives through the medium of visual art, exploring not only the interactions between foundational systems of reference but also highlighting differing modes of visual transposition, ranging from the non-objective to allusive figuration.

​

Watercolour drawing for its own sake has long been seen as a lesser form of Fine Art
and during Colonial times in Australia, a predominately feminine preoccupation. Some of
this prejudice has remained amongst sculptors until relatively recently.
This exhibition brings together the private watercolour drawings of five international
women sculptors, juxtaposed with examples from their sculptural practice.
