A Very Koori Pool Party

Make a splash at an art happening inspired by early modern Queer photography and Ancient Corroboree practices    

Early black-and-white photographs of same-sex couples lounging by riverways were often seething with implicit sexuality. A Very Koori Pool Party will indigenise and complicate these images with an art happening that promises to be very Ibiza-meets-Warrandyte. 

DJ Naycab will welcome us to the soiree with their signature beats and Queer pool party vibes. Wiradjuri dancer and performance-maker Joel Bray and fellow Koori dancers will be our hosts. Witness three Koori bodies lounging around the pavilion pool in old-fashioned bikinis. Grab an umbrellaed cocktail and mingle as the three performers shift energies around us—in a sultry choreography, flickering between iconic Queer movement languages and references to Koori cultures.
