Ten Thousand Suns 
THE 24TH BIENNALE OF SYDNEY, SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA | MARCH 9 - JUNE 10, 2024

Congratulations to Christopher Myers on his participation in Ten Thousand Suns, the 24th Biennale of Sydney, curated by Cosmin Costina? and Inti Guerrero. The Biennale is open to the public from March 9 through June 10, 2024. Myers's work will be on view at the White Bay Power Station.

Christopher Myers is an artist and writer whose work across disciplines is rooted in storytelling. Myers delves into the past to build narratives that speak to the slippages between history and mythology. His diverse practice spans textiles, performance, film, and sculptural objects, often created in collaboration with artisans from around the globe. He has worked with traditional shadow puppet makers in Jogjakarta, silversmiths in Khartoum, conceptual video artists in Ho Chi Minh City, young musicians in New Orleans, woodcarvers in Accra, weavers in Luxor, metal workers in Kenya, and textile printers in Copenhagen. These collaborations are driven by his interest in understanding the ways in which globalization is intimately intertwined with notions of self and community.
