Biennale of Sydney







We spent a freezing cold and windy day at Cockatoo Island visiting the artworks that make up the 18th Biennale of Sydney. Discovering the artworks in and around the many varied structures on the island was delightful and I would definitely like to revisit for a weekend of glamping in Spring. Several works stood out including the magical experience of Philip Beesley's complex and interactive Sibyl (bottom two images) and Sachiko Abe's meditative Cuts Papers #13.  I'm looking forward to visiting the other two main venues of the Biennale very soon.
