Aida Azin

Brown Pillars II

Incinerator Gallery
Saturday 29 NovemberSaturday 17 January

Brown Pillars is an ongoing body of work by artist Aida Azin that interrogates colonial hierarchies within the arts. The project was first presented in 2019 at Firstdraft Gallery, Sydney, where it critiqued institutional racism in the art world. In 2025, Aida has reworked Brown Pillars to examine the overlooked and appropriated cultural production and labour relations shaped by the Global South and exploited by the British Empire.

Drawing on her experiences as a ‘third culture kid’ of Filipino-Iranian heritage on Aboriginal lands, Aida’s practice develops through studio painting, journal writing, and community conversations. Her work reflects on the fragmented, non-linear nature of diasporic experience, shaped by the ongoing processes of learning, unlearning, and reconnecting.

This project has been supported by the Government of South Australia and CreateSA.
