As part of the National Art School’s 2023 Queer Contemporary and Sydney WorldPride programming, artist Luke Thurgate has created the large-scale mural drawing, Adore You.

Spanning three walls of the Drawing Gallery, and taking a painstaking six weeks to create, Adore You explores notions of desire, hero-worship, and queer subjectivity, taking inspiration from the 15th Century polyptych Ghent Altarpiece by Hubert and Jan van Eyk.

The artist will be on site making this work on Wednesdays and Saturdays, 2 – 5pm.

The National Art School acknowledges the Gadigal people of the Eora Nation, the Traditional Owners on whose Country we meet, share and create. We pay our respects to all Gadigal Elders past and present. We celebrate the diversity, history, knowledge and creativity of all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people across Australia.
