SCI-FI: Mythologies Transformed

Science Gallery
Saturday 3 AugustSaturday 31 May

SCI-FI: Mythologies Transformed offers fresh insights on science fiction, a genre built on envisioning alternative futures and imaginary realms. The lines connecting science fiction with ancient philosophy and mythologies are brought to light through the work of Asian and First Nations women artists and collectives.

The exhibition weaves together narratives found in Western science fiction literature and cinema with ideas inherent in Eastern spiritual traditions that have evolved over centuries and millennia. Adopting Western science fiction paradigms, such as parallel worlds and interdimensional travel, as a starting point, SCI-FI explores science fiction’s possible roots in Asian philosophy and spirituality. Themes such as hybridity, mysticism, transcendence and other-wordly utopias, which are found in both fields, seem to point to cultural traditions in Asia. Shown in Australia for the first time, this narrative is expanded to incorporate First Nations perspectives and knowledges.

As diverse voices gain prominence, the traditionally male-dominated genre of science fiction is slowly evolving. Moving seamlessly between ancient mythologies, contemporary art, books and post-modern cinema, SCI-FI elevates women and alternative voices, celebrating the dream worlds, futuristic visions and fantastical realities of artists calling for a more inclusive future.
