Join us for a tour by Senior Curator Peta Rake, who will take you through UQ Art Museum’s exhibition Oceanic Thinking (19 July–17 December 2022) . This is the latest exhibition of the multi-year program Blue Assembly, exploring our relationship with the ocean by gathering “blue” approaches to research.

As liquid, vast, biodiverse and non-binary spaces, oceans invite us to explore the legacies of the past while speculating together on our collective future.
