Join curator Melanie Oliver on the opening day of this new exhibition.

Featuring eight contemporary artists from across Japan, Disruptive Landscapes: Contemporary Art from Japan includes works that challenge societal norms and expectations as seen through landscape. Through quietly powerful video works, each artist reveals the kinds of politics that underpin our view of landscape, the ordering of the natural world, and assert diverse cultural viewpoints, histories and ways of being. From issues of gender and sexuality to political responses to disaster relief or biodiversity of species, landscape is shown as a culturally constructed form, a way to view nature, where reality and myth coexist.
