About

Anne Wallace’s portraits that are currently on display at GOMA draw attention to a dark chapter in Brisbane’s history, highlighting the stories of women who suffered institutional abuse at Goodna’s Wolston Park psychiatric facility.

In this conversation, Anne Wallace is joined by her friend & the subject of one of her portraits – Sue Treweek, to discuss her story of resilience and these remarkable artworks. Hosted by Simon Elliott, Deputy Director, Collections & Exhibitions, QAGOMA.
