Ready to transport museum-goers to another planet, CELESTON 2 extends on the works that local artists Man & Wah developed during Museum of Brisbane’s Artists @ Home residency program. Created during our city’s lockdown period, the spellbinding showcase combines a striking blend of audio, video and photographic material that centres around both cosmic and botanical worlds – you’ll see everything from colourful planets to springtime florals covering the walls of the museum.
The vibrant exhibition, which was part of the Ars Electronica 2020 Festival that happened in September, is Mah & Wah’s attempt to inspire reconnection with the dimensions of nature and the cosmos, elements that greatly influence the twins’ creative work and lives. To get a small taste of the digital garden, head to Mah & Wah’s Instagram page, or if you’re keen to explore CELESTON 2 between now and January 31, 2021, visit the Museum of Brisbane website to book your free ticket.
