TarraWarra International 2026: System Release

A bold new exhibition exploring creative approaches to precarious times.

TarraWarra International 2026: System Release presents ten artists from Aotearoa/New Zealand, Australia and Mexico who reach into the chaos of global precarity to create new systems of order across a wide range of media. The exhibition proposes a different understanding of order as a kind of friendship with chaos, presenting personal and collective strategies for making sense of a rapidly changing world.

Curated by Dr Emily Cormack, the exhibition invites audiences to consider alternative systems of knowledge and ways of being, grounded in First Nations thinking, posthumanism, collective intelligence and more-than-human worldviews.

Participating artists are Daniel Boyd, Francis Carmody, Megan Cope, Jose Dávila, Alicia Frankovich, Marco Fusinato, Nikau Hindin, Nicholas Mangan, Dane Mitchell and Shannon Te Ao

Located in the heart of the Yarra Valley, TarraWarra Museum of Art is a retreat for the imagination.
