Long Gallery, Rockhampton Museum of Art
Sally Smart is one of Australia’s most dynamic and sought after contemporary visual artists. Living and working on Wurundjeri/Boon Wurrung Country, Melbourne, Smart is recognised internationally for her large-scale assemblage installations, collage painting and film performance works.
The artist takes collage out of its traditional domain of small-scale paper and scales it up to dramatic effect, applying it to other media, including textiles, sculpture and even metal, creating captivating installations that invite and suggest multiple perspectives and interpretations.
In 2025 Sally Smart will transform RMOA’s Long Gallery, responding to the monumental yet intimate scale of this space through exploration of the legacies of theatre and visual art.
