Future Primitive, Heide Museum of Modern Art, Melbourne

Mikala Dwyer was featured in 'Future Primitive', a group exhibition that brought together works by 19 artists from Australia and New Zealand to explore a renewed engagement with primitivism in contemporary art. The works perform a kind of time travel, as they conjoin modernist forms with atavistic, totemic or tribal motifs, and create speculative worlds from images and ideas drawn from multiple cultures and times.
