Contemporary artist Ali Bezer believes in a version of the Gold Coast that doesnât appear on postcards. Her home town, she says, is more complex than its glossy facade suggests.
Bezerâs newest installation, an undulating aluminium and bitumen sculpture called I Can Hear Water (2021), will show as part of Solid Gold: Artists from Paradise, the inaugural exhibition of a new $60.5m gallery that opens to the public on 8 May, part of cultural district Home of the Arts.
âThe Gold Coast is a really natural place,â she says. âThe biggest stereotype is that itâs culturally void. Hota proves that there is a huge art culture here, but itâs not weighed down by intellectualism. Itâs more responsive to place and energies.â
