Number 1 Gallery presents The Human Clay, an exhibition that brings Australian artist Diane Mantzaris and Thai artist Vasan Sitthiket together for the first time in 18 years.
Both artists emerged in the early 1980s and quickly rose to prominence in their own countries. They are also social activists who believe in the power of art to change the consciousness of society.
The exhibition is destined to provoke much discussion and debate. It will present the major themes these artists are renowned for over their long careers, such as the individual's fight for equality; the role of big business in the destruction of the planet; refugees; the huge gulf between the haves and the have-nots; the outsider and the underdog.
