Hazard Area is Avery Collie’s first solo exhibition, named for the “Do Not Enter” signs on bedroom doors of teens in the 2010s. Blurring the line between art installation and her inner child’s dream bedroom, the exhibition features drawings and mementos taken from her own home, as well as new works and candid photos captured on Nintendo DS.
Hazard Area creates an environment that speaks to idolisation, obsession, relationships, ritual, performance, breakdowns, self-destruction, and biting back against the big, scary world.
About the artist
Avery Collie is a mixed media artist engaged in zine making and cut-and-paste daydreaming.
An early-career artist, Collie spent her childhood drawing her own Pokémon cards, fixating on her Nintendo DS and traveling between her family home in Albury and her grandparents’ farm in Myrtleford. Her diary-like artistic process has developed from interpolating her adolescent experiences of escapism through art, video games, and the internet with her current experiences living in Melbourne as a young trans person.
