Moving
Moving brings together works exploring the dynamic intersection of water, performance and the moving image. The exhibition considers water as subject, medium and metaphor. It celebrates durational works that observe water’s capacity to carry emotion, hold memory and reflect lived experience.
Developed and presented by Goulburn Regional Art Gallery in 2025, Moving is curated by Yvette Dal Pozzo, and includes eight Australian contemporary artists: Hannah Brontë, Katthy Cavaliere, Lottie Consalvo, Dennis Golding, David Greenhalgh, Wade Marynowsky, Ida Sophia and Jodie Whalen.
The works featured utilise elements of performance art, through actions and perspectives that engage the body and time in unique ways. Artists embrace tenets of performance, with many directly featuring the body, voice, or gesture. Other works convey lived experience through language, layered imagery, and intimate visual detail that echoes human perception and sensory encounters.
In distinct and nuanced ways, the works in Moving reflect on our psychological and physical relationship to water, its capacity to erode, to heal, and to propel. The exhibition features key moving image works alongside photographs, textiles and paintings that crystalise moments, distil gesture and translate meaning across media. Presented together in an immersive installation, these works allow audiences to consider how water, like time and the moving image, is both transient and persistent.

Touring Information
Museums & Galleries of NSW is partnering with Goulburn Regional Art Gallery to tour Moving to venues nationally from late 2027.
Moving is customisable to venue space and capability, depending on the size and installation restrictions of the venue in discussion with curator and artists. This exhibition allows for some flexibility and site-responsive exhibition planning at each touring venue and the exhibition is suitable for venues with the ability to darken some exhibition space, and ideally suited to venues with an interest in community engagement and public program delivery.
The exhibition includes a selection of moving image works from large-scale video projections to video works shown on monitors; large-scale photography, paintings, textile works, a full colour education kit, a suite of public programming offerings, mediation handbook and printed room sheet.
We are now seeking expressions of interest from galleries, museums and art centres who would like to host Moving.
