How is it possible to understand the trials and realities of the refugee experience? In this cross-disciplinary exhibition, artist and award-winning poet Elyas Alavi documents his experiences through personal, playful and mythological lenses. Evoking issues of identity, memory, migration and displacement, he offers a deeper understanding of his trials as a Hazara refugee, artist and migrant to Australia. The exhibition will be accompanied by collaborative performances with Alavi performing his poetry alongside local experimental musicians (tomorrow night will be myself and Dale Gorfinkel)
