The 25th Biennale of Sydney, titled "Rememory," opened in March 2026 across multiple venues in Sydney, including the prominent White Bay Power Station. Curated by Hoor Al-Qasimi, the exhibition features 83 artists and collectives from around the world, presenting works that demand slow, immersive engagement rather than spectacle, with highlights including large-scale textile installations by Edgar Calel and Nikesha Breeze.
The biennale's thematic focus on examining the past to understand an unstable present gained acute relevance as it opened amidst escalating conflict in Al-Qasimi's home region of Sharjah. The exhibition utilizes the concept of "rememory," derived from Toni Morrison, to explore intergenerational experience and spirituality, positioning shared histories as precursors to the future within the raw, industrial architecture of its main venue.
