Some Days My Skin Just Isn’t So Thick

Mark du Potiers is a Magandjin (Brisbane) born, raised and based sculptor, with Australian, Hong Konger and Chinese migrant heritage. He is interested in how identity, sexuality, and mental health challenges form and change across multi-cultural environments. His artworks are often made with fabrics, bright colour, symbolism and collaboration.

Established in 1987, BEMAC is renowned for showcasing innovative work of culturally diverse artists who are largely missed by institutional radars but whose distinctive and distinguished style examines discourses and perceptions on multiculturalism, migration and identity, leveraging the arts as a platform in which to pose difficult questions, challenge entrenched ideas and enable change.
