Aussie blokes get a queer makeover
Motherland is Liam Benson’s first major solo exhibition with Sydney’s Artereal Gallery. The exhibition features his trademark queer commentary on “identity and nationhood and the alliances of monarchy, motherhood and masculinity”, such as the stunning self-portrait ‘Stable Boy’ (pictured). Motherland is showing May 2 – June 2, with a talk by Benson on May 19.
