Please join us for our Seventh Sausage Sizzle fundraiser!

Earlier this year Seventh was notified that we were unsuccessful in receiving Creative Ventures funding, we had previously been successful and this was an incredibly privileged and important time of multi-year support which meant stability and growth for us as an organisation.

We ask you to help us fundraise some crucial funds so that we can continue to do the work that we love and continue to support our creative community. We seek funds to pay artists and keep our gallery free to exhibit, to support ambitious and creative public programs, to pay our rent and to pay our staff.

Saturday 23rd March from 3–6pm on the Seventh lawn.

Cooking across two BBQs we’ll be flippin’ sausages + vegan options. We will have a bar with drinks (with excellent non-alcoholic options too) for sale.

DJs to be announced soon. Stay tuned for updates.

Thank you to our drinks sponsors; Heaps Normal, Etota, Little Brunswick Wine Co and Stomping Ground Brewing.

Andrea Illés and Stacey Collee continue their investigation into the gaze and the image. Their video-based work alludes to acts of (self) imaging and gazing, through the form of the selfie. Subsequently, their work questions how contemporary imaging technologies shape our potential to experience ourselves and others, and how these potentials are internalized and externalized.

Technological imaging flattens dimensionality only for dimension to be reinterpreted by an audience. Through investigating processes of flattening and de-flattening, the artists call into question codes of gazing, the way we conceive of ourselves and others in collective spaces, and the precarity of selfness.

This work explores how constructs such as re-incarnation and family mythology provide speculative ways in which we can re-imagine our past to understand the present time. Through a mythological dreamscape, I rebirth a story that aims to rectify my past, and the lives of my ancestors. Drawing on the ancient Indian practice of extracting yellow pigment, derived from cow urine after they have been fed mango leaves, I collapse and merge various personal timelines. These include the stories of my mother and her pet cow, Indian traditions passed down to me by my father, my mother’s mango cravings during her pregnancy and the sacredness of storytelling.

This work highlights the importance of preserving aural histories, especially as they possess ancestral guidance, resilience, and healing that can be taken into future generations.

Red Bean Soup brings together the work of Asian diasporic artists; Yi "11" Zhou, Kaede James Takamoto, Phương Nguyen Le, Sherry Zheng, Minh-An Pham, and Adrian Jing Song.

The installation serves as a culmination of their experiences as they each make return trips to their hometowns, and grapple with the loss of loved ones, family secrets, fragmented memories, and feelings of un-belonging. Their shared struggle draws solace from the symbolism of the iconic Red Bean Soup.

No one knows of the dish's origin, but it has made its way across Chinese, Japanese, Malaysian, and Vietnamese cuisine. Though the dish exists in a multitude of variations, the partaking of Red Bean Soup has always symbolised good fortune, happiness, and the overcoming of hardship.
