Cross Pose – Body language against the grain explores how artists use the body’s sensory language to shape political thought. While there are works in the exhibition that are made by non-indigenous artists, the slant is definitely Black, to use a word in sync with the kind of structures of perception and body politic that curator and UQ Senior Lecturer in Art History, Dr Sally Butler, is trying to unpack in this exhibition.
