OUR REVIEW OF JOY HERE.
#melbourne Renata and Anastasia headed to the NEW JOY exhibition at @immigrationmuseum_melb yesterday, loved the vibrant colours and going back in time with good old 90s VHS video store 😅.
Here’s Anastasia’s review:
‘The Immigration Museum presents a new multi-media emotive adventure for people of all ages. ‘Joy’ is an expressive project shared by 7 different artists which created designs on how they express their joy and what fills them with it. Colours, concepts, shapes and designs on what sparks their joy and how they view it in their own eyes. Abstract paintings on walls, hallways with rainbow lights sprinkling everywhere, an interactive joy generator, visual art with meanings behind them, a video store filled with cassettes of a variety of movies, a space filled with laughter and sound and a large rabbit bed. Check out the new exhibition now to get a fair share of their story until 28th of August.´ Entry is Free with museum entry. selffunded #immigrationmuseummelbourne @immigrationmuseum_melb @museumsvictoria #joyexhibition #whatsonmelbourne #museumsvictoria 📷 @renatakatarzyna
Joy brings the Immigration Museum to life with an emotive adventure where creativity, colour and storytelling join forces to take you on a transformative journey.
Seven newly commissioned installations by seven leading Victorian-based creatives offer a unique opportunity to experience the power and meaning of joy. Big joyous moments and more reflective spaces capture all kinds of joy, from the carefree years of childhood to a celebration of belonging and togetherness.
From a full-scale replica of a 1990s video store to a giant soft-toy rabbit called Bunny Dearest, Joy is a space where creativity and colour join forces to take you on a transformative journey.
This emotive adventure consists of artistic installations by seven leading Victorian-based creatives focusing on their interpretation of joy.
Explore what joy means to others and share what sparks your own joy with our colourful 'Share Your Joy' wall. Entry to Joy is free with your entry to Immigration Museum - plan your visit today!
