Artist talk & opening – Linda Sok: Reincarnations of an altar cloth

Celebrate the opening of Reincarnations of an altar cloth, an exhibition by Cambodian-Australian artist Linda Sok.

Reincarnations of an altar cloth presents a selection of works from the ongoing series Deities in Temples, re-imagining lost, stolen, collected, and destroyed silk weavings. Collaborating with family members and drawing upon descriptions found on museum registration cards in the National Museum of Cambodia, Sok engages in decolonial practices and methodologies to reclaim and present fragments of her Cambodian heritage.

On the evening, Sok will be in conversation with Emily Rolfe, Curator, Contemporary Visual Arts, Campbelltown Arts Centre, to discuss and share insights into her practice and the journey this series has taken her on in reconstructing and reclaiming ancestral practices.

Reincarnations of an altar cloth is a Campbelltown Arts Centre exhibition presented in partnership with Murray Art Museum Albury. The exhibition includes new work commissioned by Campbelltown Arts Centre that expands the visual narrative of the ongoing series.
