Celebrate the launch of two new exhibitions at Hervey Bay Regional Gallery, Mia Boe's solo exhibition 'Guwinganj' and group exhibition 'Picturing the End'.--
Mia Boe's solo exhibition 'Guwinganj' was developed in response to her time on Butchulla Country as the 2024 recipient of the Fiona Foley Residency. Boe is a Melbourne-based painter with Butchulla and Burmese ancestry whose work is influenced by the inheritance and ‘disinheritance’ of these two cultures. Through her unique depiction of elongated figures and stylised landscapes, Boe records and recovers Indigenous histories in a contemporary context, fusing the personal and historical.

As “the End” of humanity flashes across our screens, what can we learn about ourselves and our public cultures by examining these narratives? 'Picturing the End' brings together works from significant Australian artists Tiyan Baker, Joseph Breikers, Michael Cook, Kinly Grey, Guy Louden, Dana Lawrie, Tracey Moffatt, and Grant Stevens, reflecting on how our relationship with our own mortality intersects with narratives of humanity’s downfall.
