The year ahead: 2020 Bowness Prize, Women’s Circus commission and Light Source - a podcast by RRR - Triple R

Dr Christian Thompson AO, a Bidjara man of the Kunja Nation and winner of the 2020 Bowness Photography Prize joins Richard to discuss his piece ‘Rule of Three’. This compelling four panel print explores the environment and Aboriginality through a contemporary lens, and is on display at the Monash Gallery of Art.

As the Women’s Circus approach their 30th anniversary, Creative Director Devon Taylor talks about their 2021 New Crew and Circus Mixtape programs, welcoming not only women, but gender diverse performers at all levels of experience. Collaborating with Arts Centre Melbourne and the Metro Tunnel Creative Project, they will also work on a commission championing artists with disabilities, premiering later this year in the city’s arts precinct.

Finally, Melbourne based filmmaker Hossein Valamanesh discusses his moving image work ‘What Goes Around’, commissioned as part of Light Source at the Buxton Contemporary. Light Source is the gallery’s program of six digital artworks developed during the 2020 lockdown.
