There is a belief that when you are born into a new body and mind, you are granted certain promises. A word for them is ‘barakat’ or ‘angel currencies’. As you move through the world, these promises are exchanged and multiplied. They birth new desires and they call in other realms. In this exhibition, the artists enact this interchange. They invoke cords tethered to others as forms of knowledge, in all directions of time and space.

Our second exhibition of the year is curated by Justine Youssef. This show is a continuation of her show in 2023 and allows the artists from that show to develop their practises and continue working together. The artists feature in this year’s show are:

• Abrir

• Céline Skaf

• Ma’ata Halaifonua-Palu and Benjamin Akuila

• Skye Bakhos

• Wassila Abboud

Opening night drinks on Tuesday 26th March 6pm with thanks from Grifter Brewing Company.

This exhibition runs until 7th June 2024.

All exhibitions at The Bearded Tit are supported by Create NSW and Unfunded Empathy.
