'Evidence' by Brook Andrew
Couldn't load pickup availability
An assembly of photographs, documents, and fragments drawn from institutional collections—anthropological records, colonial images, state-held material—staged, catalogued, misread, stripped of context.
Andrew doesn’t restore these materials to an imagined original truth; instead, the sequencing, scale and graphic intervention show the unreliabilty of how we archive things. You move through it aware that documentation is never passive—it is an act, and often a violent one.
Andrew’s practice sits within a broader interrogation of museums and archives as sites of control, particularly in relation to Indigenous histories and representation. Evidence draws on his Wiradjuri heritage and longstanding engagement with institutional critique.
