Get a bit silly at Museum of Brisbane’s major participatory exhibition, Play Moves
Some of the most fun gallery experiences are when you can truly immerse yourself in the exhibits. This summer, Museum of Brisbane (MoB) is taking immersive to a whole other level with its largest participatory exhibition to date, Play Moves. Prepare to enter a technicolour demolition party, travel back to the 80s and relax in a fluffy bath tab while your senses are taken on an otherworldly journey.
MoB is once again inviting art lovers to escape the world outside and enter a new, far more colourful one inside its fun-filled exhibition Play Moves. Opening at MoB from December 10, 2022 and sticking around until April 16, 2023, this fantastical display is bringing together a bounty of local and national artists for a boundary-breaking art experience like no other. Exhibition-goers can stroll through six large-scale installations where every action you take makes the art around you come alive.
Weave your way through Slow Art Collective’s thread-filled house structure, then step into the future as your physical and digital world meld together thanks to artist Sai Karlen. If that’s not enough time travelling for you, you can take it back to the 80s with Counterpilot to discover an office where a hidden party and dancing pot plants await. Get weird and whimsical at Tara Pattenden’s sound interactive environment or enter a technicolour demolition party with UnitePlayPerform. Last but not least, it’s time to chuck on some headphones, put your feet up and sink into a soft, fluffy bathtub for Michelle Vine’s affirmation-laced art experience.
Wanna play? Tickets to Play Moves are free, but you can head to the Museum of Brisbane website for further information. Psst … we’ve heard that there will even be some fun after-dark pop-up performances for select Friday nights during the exhibition and a pretty sick opening party to kick off the exhibition with a bang. How fun!
