Colleen Ahern, Darcey Bella Arnold, Hugo Blomley, BMDO, Dale Frank, Karl Fritsch, Maria Kozic, David McDiarmid, Rob McLeish, Darren Sylvester ‘Sydney Contemporary 2025’
Neon Parc is thrilled to present a group exhibition at Sydney Contemporary 2025, featuring new and historical works by Colleen Ahern, Darcey Bella Arnold, Hugo Blomley, BMDO, Dale Frank, Karl Fritsch, Maria Kozic, David McDiarmid, Rob McLeish, and Darren Sylvester.
Taking place at Carriageworks, Eora/Sydney from 11–14 September, Neon Parc’s presentation highlights the artists’ shared explorations of desire, sex, glamour, death, and decay.
Visceral, seductive, and confrontational, the works exemplify Neon Parc’s commitment to pushing boundaries and championing artists who challenge conventional narratives around the body, identity, and contemporary visual culture.
