Ngununggula, the Southern Highlands’ first regional art gallery, will present the work of four contemporary Australian artists; Karen Black, Georgia Spain, Cybele Cox and Michelle Ussher. On display from 3 June – 6 August 2023, the exhibition titled Once More With Feeling will see the artists exhibiting together for the first time, using sculpture, painting and sound to investigate the relationship between the human form and culture, femininity, sexuality, theatre and ritual.

Once More With Feeling will invite viewers to explore how ideals around femininity could be explored through alternative perspectives. With a focus on shapes, expressions and actions that are associated with the female bodies, the works expose moments in which mundane behaviours and movements blend into acts of modern ritual, as well as experimenting with themes of occultism and theatre, allowing the body to be re-examined within a collaborative space.
