Odile

Heritage Hill Museum and Historic Gardens

66 McCrae Street Dandenong, Victoria

5 May - 23 June 2018

Odile is a major exhibition held across four cultural venues in Greater Dandenong: Heritage Hill Museum and Historic Gardens, Drum Theatre, Garnar Lane and Walker Street Gallery and Arts Centre. 

Eleven artists explore ideas implicit with good and evil, performance and identity while referencing dance, puppetry and the spoken word.

Odile takes its inspiration from the black swan in Tchaikovsky’s classic tale Swan Lake. The sinister and seductive black swan Odile is contrasted with the innocent white swan Odette.

The exhibition features leading contemporary artists Zoe Croggon, Anne Ferran, Juan Ford, Tarryn Gill, Jenny Holzer, Kyoko Imazu, Hung Lin, Polixeni Papapetrou, Kate Rohde, Vanessa White, Gosia Wlodarczak. The exhibition is best experienced as a self guided walking tour.
