About: 

Shan Turner-Carroll is a queer, Anglo-Burmese Australian artist living and working on Wonnarua country in NSW.Shan’s  practice interrogates both human and non-human nature, alternative forms of social exchange, and interactions between art, artist and viewer: sending and receiving signals. His work sings to snakes, serenades with aliens, and barters with islands, rivers, and oceans. Site-specificity is key to his practice, not only in making, but rather in how an embodied methodology of making emerges upon each site and location. Art-making is ritualistic and transformative, using play, humour and experimentation are key elements within his current practice.

The Substation is a genre-defying arts venue in Naarm/Melbourne, amplifying artworks that transcend form. Their multi-artform spaces are illuminated with the most urgent contemporary arts to inspire us to refigure problematic histories, imagine possible futures, and forge new connections. The Substation is the nation’s leader in multi-arts and experimental practice. They connect our continent’s most diverse communities in Naarm/Melbourne’s west to the world through a program of international, national, and local presentation, development, and engagement opportunities.

Ace Artist in Residence program, curated in partnership with collectives and institutions that inspire us, provides time to think and space to create. Every quarter, we invite artists across the globe to turn one of our hotel rooms into their studio for a month, then showcase the resulting body of work with the Ace community.
