artist bio

Bhenji Ra is an interdisciplinary artist whose practice combines performance and video.  Her work is often concerned with the dissection of cultural theory and identity, centralizing her own personal histories as a tool to reframe performance.  With an emphasis on occupation and at times collective action, her work plays with the multiplicities of spectacle while offering moments of becoming and alternative modules of community to be considered. She recently curated Sissy Ball at Carriageworks, presented by the Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardis Gras and Red Bull Music.

Fambo acknowledges the Gadigal people of the Eora Nation as the Traditional Owners of the lands and waterways on which we raise our children and make work.

We pay our respects to Elders past and present and to the generations of families who have gathered on this land for over 65,000 years.

Indigenous sovereignty was never ceded and resistance to ongoing colonisation continues.

Fambo Slo-Mo acknowledges the traditional owners of the lands and waterways on which we live,
raise our children and make work; The Gadigal, Wangal, Darug, 
Wurundjeri, and Dharwaral people. 
We pay our respects to their Elders past and present.

We thank and acknowledge Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander artists, staff and families contributing to this project.

Fambo Slo-Mo is supported by the Australian Government through the Australia Council for the Arts, its arts funding and advisory body; and the NSW Government through Create NSW
