Cunning Revived observes nine artists engaging in ritual and ceremony as an act of empowerment. Everyday rites are woven through personal and creative practices to initiate a stronger connection to bodily autonomy, and the potential to provoke collective change. These artists employ the magic of ritual process with intention, as a conduit for progress. The exhibition signals a necessary revision of historical depictions of Cunning Folk, their unique practices, and the tools they’ve used to heal our communities through the ages. A contemporary vision of the importance of these unique processes is crucial in order to forge a path of intersectional, magical resistance. Featuring Daisy Beattie, Tamara Elkins, Yvette Hamilton, Gianna Hayes, Emily Hunt, Adriana Māhanga Lear, Hayley Millar Baker, Katy B Plummer and Justine Youssef. A Blue Mountains City Art Gallery exhibition curated by Hayley Zena Poynton.
