The Future and Other Fictions
Through more than 180 works, this world premiere exhibition invites you to step into the imaginations of 19 creative visionaries from around the globe. Experience how futures are imagined and made onscreen, with artworks, sets, props, scripts, clips, costumes and original design materials on display.
Explore a diverse range of futuristic worlds including costumes from Marvel Studios' Black Panther: Wakanda Forever by legendary designer Ruth E Carter. See how the cityscapes of Cyberpunk 2077, Blade Runner 2049 and The Creator were dreamed up through stunning concept art and intricate models. Enter the kaleidoscopic world of Icelandic pop goddess Björk, with masks, dresses and artworks designed for her music video ‘The Gate’. Witness the reclamation of First Nations, South Asian and Pacific futures through fashion activism and remixed rituals and mythologies.
The Future and Other Fictions also features two new moving image works by Hannah Brontë, and Natasha Wanganeen and Liam Young.
