She’ll Be Right

Solo Exhibition

Sydney Contemporary Art Fair, Presented by Ames Yavuz, Carriageworks, Sydney, Australia

September 11-14, 2025

Engaging critically with the sociopolitical architecture of institutional systems, my practice is driven by an enduring concern with how inequality is sustained through bureaucratic process and formalised control. She’ll be Right navigates the cultural conditions that enable this harm to continue, analysing complicity as a political structure embedded in daily life and upheld through indifference, sanctioned withdrawal, and collective silence. This inquiry positions inaction as a calculated function of authority, dependent on complacent consent to maintain systemic continuity. I examine how the rhetoric of care conceals neglect, and how ideological conformity and cultural passivity reinforce the illusion of institutional legitimacy.

As a disabled, queer, gender diverse, working-class, neurodivergent survivor of prolonged abuse, I have suffered the dehumanisation authorised by bureaucratic inertia. Positioned within intersecting systems of structural vulnerability, I am attuned to the mechanics of procedural violence embedded in policy infrastructure. I engage these constructs with analytical rigour, drawing from lived experience and sustained research into policy, ethics, capitalist governance, and disciplinary regulation to unmask how institutions manufacture exclusion and consolidate dominance under the guise of care.

Framed around a widely accepted social reflex of disengagement and dismissal, this body of work interrogates the tacit compliance through which violence becomes mundane and slips past moral scrutiny. The compositions operate as interrupted encounters that position the viewer as an active presence and implicate them as both witness and accomplice, challenging the presumed neutrality of spectatorship, framing observation as a mode of participation and denaturalising its role as impartial, recasting it as a site of ethical consequence.
