- **Event Description**: Platform is our annual Queensland-emerging-artist exhibition.This year we present new works by Dean Ansell, Spencer Harvie, and Seren Wagstaff. Join the artists as they speak about their works. 

Dean Ansell is of Melanesian (Riḡorabana, Balawaia, Papua Niugini), Maltese, and Anglo-Celtic descent. They interpret Melanesian mythologies and rituals in their installations, soundscapes, and performances.

Spencer Harvie explores dark, surreal, nonsensical aspects of online and fan subcultures. Processing the slop of found, AI-generated, and imagined imagery within an elaborate cartoon logic, he unleashes the psychosexual horrors bubbling beneath.

Seren Wagstaff works in installation and performance. They explore working‑class cultures and the queer innuendoes embedded within them.
