Everything You Can Dream of is True residency

Hosted by Utp, a transgenerational cohort of First Nations, Asian and African diasporic artists will engage in facilitated experiences and peer learning, with self-directed time over a week-long residency. Critically considering the provocation ‘Everything You Can Dream of is True’, which builds on the theme of the Sharjah Biennial 15, ‘Thinking Historically in the Present’, the residency will conclude with public programs and artist talks.

A moving image series with the same name took place at Utp on Dharug land in 2024. Everything You Can Dream of is True is a moving image series that invites a re-imagining of ourselves and the world around us. It is touring to WestSpace in June 2025.

Participating artists to be announced.

Residency Dates: 19 - 23 May 2025
