Join us for Zanny Begg in conversation with Dr Christine Rogers.

The discussion will expand on themes of Zanny Begg: These stories will be different and delve into the use of film to explore hidden and contested histories.

Zanny Begg is an artist and filmmaker living in Bulli, on Dharawal land. She uses film, drawing and installation to explore hidden and contested histories, and examines different ways in which we can live and exist in the world. Through her practice, Begg has explored macro-political themes such as alter-globalisation protests, and micro-political worlds, such as children in maximum-security prisons.

Dr Christine Rogers is a Pākehā/Ngāi Tahu filmmaker, writer and textile artist. Her film work encompasses fiction, essay films, art videos, corporate and infotainment, and has been screened nationally and internationally at multiple film festivals. Her writing has been published in books, journals, newspapers and online. Her textile art has been exhibited in Australia and Aotearoa/New Zealand. Through her creative practice, Dr Rogers explores belonging, adoption, and identity.

The University of the Sunshine Coast Art Gallery is a space where art, ideas and community come together. Located at the UniSC Sunshine Coast campus, the Art Gallery was redeveloped in 2020 establishing itself as the leading public gallery in the region. The Art Gallery presents a program of exhibitions by leading local, national and international artists that are research-led, enquiry based and shaped by the university’s commitment to enabling opportunities for our communities to participate meaningfully with UniSC. The exhibition program is supported by an active publishing program that generates new scholarship as well as public programs and educational activities such as lectures, symposia, seminars, workshops and performances that offer opportunities for our diverse communities to access contemporary art and its ideas. The Art Gallery is also responsible for the University of the Sunshine Coast Art Collection. At over 1000 works—and with many displayed across UniSC’s multi-campus network—it is a culturally significant asset for the region.
