On Identity

The Community Gallery seeks expressions of interest for On Identity, which will be exhibited from 3 December 2019 to 31 January 2020 at Kyabram Town Hall.

“In the social jungle of human existence, there is no feeling of being alive without a sense of identity.” – Erik Erikson, American-German psychologist and psychoanalyst.

Who are we? How do we see ourselves? How do we see others? What roles do age, religion, social class, education, occupation, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, ethnicity, nationality, culture, environment, hobbies, interests and affiliations play in our sense of identity? How do our online identities impact our view of ourselves and others?

On Identity will explore these issues through the medium of visual art.
