E-waste art exhibition coming | The Express Newspaper | Local News covering Sport, Agricultural, Entertainment, Community & Business News for Mareeba, Atherton, Cooktown, Kuranda, the Tablelands & Far North Queensland Australia.

Brisbane-based artist Suzon Fuks is bringing her immersive exhibition 'e-Galaxy' to Cairns, starting a national tour on February 16. The exhibition transforms discarded electronic devices like old phones and laptops into a walkable, tactile installation featuring sculptures, artist books, video projections, and soundscapes.

The exhibition addresses themes of electronic waste, sustainability, and human connection, prompting reflection on consumption and the environmental impact of technology. It represents a significant shift in Fuks's artistic practice from digital platforms to physical, hands-on work and highlights the shared human effort behind technology. The Cairns installation will be a large labyrinth, offering a contemplative experience for visitors at NorthSite Contemporary Arts.
