About this Event
Join us for coffee, tea and pastries from 8:30am, followed by a tour of Paloma Contreras Lomas’ exhibition Disco Inferno at 9:30am with Gasworks’ Curator Rosa Tyhurst.
Moving between mediums, Paloma’s work explores representations of her home country, examining how its historic and contemporary violence's have been shaped through popular culture and media narratives. Flitting between folklore, literature, children’s comics and her own personal histories, she employs grotesque, subculture aesthetics to critique patriarchal systems and their intersections with capital.
The tour will take place at Gasworks, temporary seating provided on request.
