In celebration of Brisbane Festival, Brisbane Quarter hosting a stunning art installation by First Nations contemporary artist, Grace Lillian Lee across September 1–30. Titled Exposed Resilience, this exhibition showcases a selection of Lee’s unique woven body adornments which were created in response to a picture of her grandmother’s wedding on Thursday Island, Queensland, in 1948.

Grace utilises her own contemporary style that’s based on the ‘grasshopper’ weaving technique, a traditional Torres Strait Islander method passed on to her by her Elders. She crafts each piece by hand, dressing the body to create new forms. Three captivating monochromatic body works will be suspended in the air at Brisbane Quarter, making it a must-see for fashion and art lovers alike in September.

Be sure to head upstairs to Podium Level 2 after you’ve visited the installation and make a night out of it by dining at one of Brisbane Quarter’s exquisite restaurants: Brisbane Phoenix, Persone, Phat Boy, Tenya and The Lex.
