Dennis Golding: POWER – The Future is Here | Pine Rivers

8 March @ 10:00 am - 17 May @ 4:00 pm

Dennis Golding POWER - The Future is Here Pine Rivers

POWER – The Future is Here is the result of a collaboration between artist Dennis Golding and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students from Alexandria Park Community School. Pine Rivers Art Gallery, 10:00 AM – 4:00 PM, Saturday, 08 March 2025 – Saturday, 17 May 2025.

The superhero capes were created during a 2020 workshop led by artist-in-residence Dennis Golding at Alexandria Park Community School, as part of the Solid Ground initiative. Students from kindergarten to Year 12 designed their capes, drawing inspiration from their personal experiences and cultural heritage.

Through their shared superhero personas, Golding and the students celebrate the power of culture in shaping identity and connecting to Country. The capes, both individually and collectively, challenge social, political, and cultural portrayals of contemporary First Nations experiences.

This collaborative project, curated by Kyra Kum Sing, is a Solid Ground initiative presented by Carriageworks and Blacktown Arts, and is touring with Museums & Galleries of NSW. Support for the project was provided by the Australian Government’s Visions of Australia program.
