Open Studio events give audiences a behind-the-scenes look at creative spaces across Brisbane. Join us for a cuppa and a yarn as we show you around their studio and discuss what drives their creativity and inspires their practice.

Christopher Bassi is an artist of Meriam, Yupungathi and British descent. Working with archetypal models of representational painting, his work engages with the medium as sociological and historical text and as a means to address issues surrounding cultural identity, alternative genealogies, and colonial legacies in Australia and the South Pacific. Through critical re-imagining, his paintings become a space for a type of speculative storytelling that consider questions of history and place and the entangling of personal and collective experience.
