During Here is Your Horizon, video artist Sione Monu will host a commissioned Instagram takeover for the duration of the exhibition, exploring the contemporary pacific experience of adornment and challenging notions of representation, culture and gender.
Sione Monu is an artist of Tongan descent working across the media of photography, fashion and adornment, performance and drawing. Monu often uses Instagram (visit @sione93 & @sione_has_doubts) as an art tool, creating artworks that utilise the platform as a way of re-indigenising space as well as create accessibility for his community to engage with the works. Monu is also a contributing member of the art collectives Witch Bitch.
Don’t miss Monu’s playful ‘Kafu Couture’ workshop on Saturday 15th, which invites audience members to dress up in printed ‘mink’ blankets and accessories for a personalised fashion portrait!
