Pasar Malam (Night Market) is an immersive exhibition of screen-printed works exploring the transgressive, shadowy spaces that exist in our communities. Each artwork has been created by Krack studio in collaboration with leading Indonesian and Australian artists. Engaging activities include printmaking workshops as well as a night of festival and food, a Pasar Malam/night market style event staged here at WFAC.
Presented alongside a sculptural work, artist Leyla Stevens will present GROH GOH Rehearsal for Rangda. GROH GOH repositions the mythical demon queen Rangda, positing her as a balancing force for spiritual order and as an empowering female force. GROH GOH proposes a matrilineal reshaping of Balinese art histories, as a counter to sustained colonial and touristic interpretations, and examines how these stories migrate and reconfigure in diasporic contexts.
