Don’t we all feel like strangers to ourselves sometimes? The entity that meets your eyes in the mirror isn’t the same version of you that people encounter out in the world, and it’s different again from that deeper self that dwells somewhere between soul and psyche. Such slippery, porous territory offers artists a rich hunting ground.

Curator and author Felicity Milburn takes a lively look at bodies in contemporary art from Aotearoa New Zealand and Australia. Full of humour, surprise and heart, Dummies & Doppelgangers explores what it means to be human.
