Museum of Brisbane – Artists in Residence

About the Artists

Luke George and Daniel Kok work through experimental processes with collaborators and publics across different contexts where they increasingly highlight the need for robust intercultural cooperation and deeper social engagement.

Their project, Still Lives is a performance-installation series that captures (with ropes) significant moments or movement in relation to specific cultural contexts. Each edition of Still Lives is a durational, site-responsive and context-specific process of binding cultural objects in their place. This allows new conversations to emerge and unveils narratives about local history, political tensions, social connections and personal attachments.

During their residency at Museum of Brisbane, Luke and Daniel will be undertaking social and cultural research about Brisbane, discovering the stories and threads that entwine objects and people to this place.

MoB’s Artist in Residence program is supported by Tim Fairfax AC.
