Screening Room

The Screening Room is essential to the exploration of our annual question. With each exhibition, we present a moving image work for a limited period of time. The selection draws on work on view in the gallery as well as bringing in additional perspectives.

Upcoming Screening

Tea (2024)
Yumoi Zheng
4 November 2024 - 1 December 2024

Yumoi Zheng, Tea, 2024. Single channel video, still. Commissioned by play_station artist run space.

This video is divided into four parts. Two old ladies at a tea party, a faggot worshipping her gods, a conviction at the massage room, and an ethereal object in the forest sing the song from tropical nostalgia. – Yumoi Zheng
