Q: What is Gooey on The Inside?

A: Gooey on the Inside was an underground art, music and event organisation curated by Kati Cubby and Holly Fluxx that successfully hosted over 40 separate events (from 2007-2010).

Our events included art exhibitions, live music performances, dance parties, artist markets, workshops, skill shares, contemporary dance performances, writings, theatre performances, fundraisers, live video streams, panel discussions and fashion shows, as well as a combination of many of these simultaneously.

Highlights of Gooey On the Inside include:
- A live music and art event in Berlin, Germany (The Slumber Party)
- A live music and art event in Santiago, Chile (La Cunt Rave)
- A well received music showcase compilation cd (Hit Machine XXIVIVX), featuring Gooey on the Inside artists from Indonesia, Japan, Chile, USA, UK, Papua New Guinea, New Zealand, and across Australia.
- An invitation to speak at This Is Not Art Festival 2008 on "How to start a scene from scratch"
- Producing our own specialist radio programs for 3CR and SYN fm
- Over 40 successful dynamic and diverse events spanning the course of three years
- Featured in an interview and full page spread in UK magazine "Super Super" as well as local Australian zines

Focusing on young people who identified as women, trans, queer, and people of colour, we strived to create space, agency, audience, support and a thriving, dynamic environment and build a community for our artists.

We have now moved on to other projects, but can be contacted via email:

ISLANDS IN THE STREAM

EAST SIDE STORY

BY IGOR GRUBIC

-----------------------

OPENING 15th July, 7PM

EXHIBITION 16th - 31st July.

Brisbane Powerhouse, Turbine Room.

http://www.brisbanepowerhouse.org/events/view/islands-in-the-stream-and-east-side-story-by-igor-grubic/

PARTICIPATING ARTISTS: Kati Cubby, Holly Fluxx, Warren Gracie, Okapi Akimbo, Jackson Monster Nighttime Power, Corey Pugh + Igor Grubic.

CURATED BY: Vivian Ziherl.

An exhibition of cultures of protest and queer radicality presented as a visual art program of Museum of Brisbane's 'Prejudice & Pride'.

Familiar to warehouses, squats and other informal spaces, ‘Islands in the Stream’ is the first institutional exhibition of work by six young radically queer and transgender artist/activists all with shared histories in Brisbane.

Featuring works such as ‘Boys are Cheats and Liars’ (video) and ‘I’m a F**n Clone (After Ryan Trecartin)’ (textile), the exhibition registers a note of the personal and the regional from within a transglobally networked, radically post-identity politics movement.

Accompanying ‘Islands in the Stream’ is a double-channel video piece by Croatian artist Igor Grubic that takes footage of violent citizen reactions to the first gay-rights marches in Belgrade (2001) and Zagreb (2002) as a choreographic text.

Exhibition suitable for audiences aged 18 and over.

This project has been supported through a Creative Sparks Grant, a joint initiative of Brisbane City Council and the Queensland Government through Arts Queensland.
