fEMININE FRAGILITY

Feminine Fragility: Art as Quiet Resistance

Moores Building Art Space, Fremantle
7–22 June 2025 | Opening Night: Friday 6 June, 6 - 8 PM

Feminine Fragility is a powerful group exhibition curated and co-led by Kamila Waleszkiewicz and Iwona Van Niekerk, in collaboration with members of the Art Conversations WA collective. The exhibition brings together multidisciplinary artists to explore the complex experiences of women through the lens of vulnerability, strength, loss, healing, and identity.

The exhibition features a large-scale installation of 50 sheer fabric panels imprinted with dresses, symbolising both presence and absenc, accompanied by experimental video works, sound, printmaking, painting, and sculpture. The project draws attention to the often-unseen stories of women, while celebrating feminine energy, memory, and resilience.

Art Conversations WA Artists exhibiting at Moores's:
Andy Druyan, Anita Grewal, Graham Hay, Kelly Ha, Eimear Flynn, Ivana Girard, Jane Marron. Each guest artist will present one work in response to the exhibition themes, contributing to a unified visual narrative.

We are also honoured to include guest artist Jana Vodesil-Baruffi, whose practice aligns with the exhibition’s message of creative strength and introspection. 

The opening night includes a poetry reading by actress, director, and poet Isabella Jacqueline and opening remarks by guest speaker Monika Lukowska, artist and academic.

This exhibition is a space for reflection, connection, and dialogue - amplifying women’s voices through contemporary visual language.
