Queensland's best and brightest Indigenous artists and organisations have been recognised at this year's Cairns Indigenous Art Fair's Art Awards. Hosted by First Nations actor, director, singer, songwriter, comedian and writer, Elaine Crombie, CIAF 2020 Art Award recipients were chosen by an esteemed judging panel comprising Australia's leading Indigenous curators and artists, Bruce Johnson-McLean, Carly Lane and Judy Watson (refer to panellist bios at bottom of media release).
The exhibition Fire & Brimstone casts a watching eye over the corporations and individuals who continue to choose profit over people and climate catastrophe. Before there was a virus crisis, many expert reports warned of the need to close the inequality gap. The reports all pointed to our declining health, life expectancy and rising numbers of preventable deaths; especially in prisons, aged care and rural and remote communities which, in Australia, largely comprise First Nations peoples. The most shocking work in Fire & Brimstone is 'Kumanjayi', Chips Mackinolty's stark red and black text memorial to the 437 black deaths in custody since the Royal Commission into Aboriginal Deaths in Custody (Report 1996). Very few of its 330 recommendations have been implemented. Every year, Aboriginal people continue to die in custody. Mackinolty's work is subtitled, "and still counting".

Komang's music possesses a unique feminine strength that is empowering and entirely engaging. Her knack for weaving stories into electronic soul & 90s house-style production is truly exciting - I can't wait to hear more from Komang. “ Sui Zhen

Presenting For Your Pleasure, a new media art exhibition exclusive to the TikTok platform. 13.08.2020-31.08.2020. TikTok is a place where people dance around their kitchens, play pranks on their families, connect with their friends, laugh, cry and sing. Surprising, heartwarming and almost always funny, TikTok takes note of where you linger, what you like' and feeds you quick hits of dopamine just for you'. The twelve artists in For Your Pleasure use sound, video, performance, dance, collage and pop culture to celebrate the connectivity, intimacy and relatability of 2020's most downloaded app. In a nod to TikTok's For You Page', For Your Pleasure gives you art you didn't know you needed, from the comfort of your smartphone.
For ten days in September, film fans will be able to stream a fully curated program of pertinent and eye-opening shorts.

Two well established and award-winning artists are joining forces to bring their exhibition POWER of STYLE to The Old Fire Station Gallery for four weeks. Redcliffe Art Society [RAS] has been the art home of both Enid Bullock and Maya Kuperman, who became friends because of shared similarities. Their love of drawing was fostered during their childhoods, and they kept this love for art with them always. However, these artists have emerged from quite different backgrounds.
