Intimacy explores the elusive yet ubiquitous issue of intimacy through the work of nine Australian and international artists. Using video, performance, installation, photography and sculpture these artists create works that are disturbing, moving and humorous. Focusing on the discussion of questions of absence, selfrevelation and voyeurism.
