The Sublingual Museum


Stephanie Radok the curator of this exhibition has carefully selected works from Flinders University art collection exhibiting alongside with her own creation of work which she has been practicing over three decades. Like the title Radok intention is to portray the unspoken primitive approach to everyday life object/subject that lying underneath each work when being displayed to compare the relation with works. Here's link to Media Press.

Plaster cast book by Radok
One of my favourite works from this exhibition is the plaster cast book series which I'm not so sure of the title. However the meaning behind it is what really caught my attention. Radok used Plaster cast book to represent the idea of unreadable - to establish the fact that westerner could never fully fathom the Indigenous culture as it is such a diverse culture.
