You have until Friday 10 April to apply for HomeGround 2026.

The immersive exhibition, Daydream by Linda Chant, runs through to mid-June at the Western Plains Cultural Centre in Dubbo. If you haven’t seen it yet, here’s your invitation to step into a mildly familiar space where memory and imagination gently blur - and witness another extraordinary HomeGround artist.

Self (with A.I. and glitches) by Andrew Robards explored identity, distortion, and digital image-making through a powerful HomeGround exhibition earlier this year titled “Now Screening” at the Western Plains Cultural Centre in Dubbo.
