Being Manly – exhibition by Billy Bain
Local artist Billy Bain is challenging colonial narratives of masculinity with his unique exhibition Being Manly at the Manly Art Gallery & Museum (MAG&M).
An Indigenous man born and raised in the Manly area, his paintings and ceramic artworks playfully examine popular iconography and histories of the area while referencing the continued presence of the traditional custodians of this land.
Billy will present two public programs throughout the exhibition, a conversation with his mentor Ramesh Mario Nithiyendran and a discussion with Senior Curator of the MAG&M Katherine Roberts.
