Sports Dreams

2023
Cheap Tongue
Fremantle

A multi-medium arts exhibition created by Artist Tim Meakins and Producer Ryan Sandilands. Sports Dreams plays with the youthful notion of growing up and fantasising about being a sporting star, and though an ambitious dream, we all have these dreams or our own version of it. The dreams traverse both digital and ‘real’ realities, with alterations and changes as they are produced, and re-produced in different spaces — just like that of real mascots; they're not born, they're created, they adapt — and they don’t play by our rules. Collaborations with Elly Sumner, Remington Matters, Lo-Fi, Good Company Records, Tim Fitzgerald, Ethan De Lacy, James Caswell, Caitlin McFeat, Isaac Diamond Performer, Arrigo Brackenridge, e-Plume , Nora Zion, Guy Contact, Eilish Campbell, Visaya Hoffie, Edwin Sitt, Bradley Pinkerton, Joe’s Printing, Case Frames, Patrick O’Brien and Terry Meakins. This project has been supported by the Department of Local Government, Sport and Cultural Industries.
