Ur Wayii (Incoming Tide)
Torres Strait artist Brian Robinson uses painting, printmaking, sculpture and design to encompass the region's mythology, cosmology and spirituality. Robinson, who grew up on Waiben (Thursday Island), incorporates contemporary icons taken from video games and Hollywood movies to reflect on Islander history, humour and love of fishing.
Ur Wayii (Incoming Tide) is a multi-disciplinary exhibition spanning printmaking, sculpture, video and graphic design, it is a complex tapestry woven from traditional knowledge, historical narratives, and a keen engagement with the contemporary globalised world.
