Hiromi Tango: Hope

Hope by Hiromi Tango
Friday 11th April 2025 - Sunday 22nd June 2025 @ Hyde Park Barracks Museum

Museums of History NSW is delighted to announce a dramatic new art installation by renowned multidisciplinary artist Hiromi Tango, on display at the Hyde Park Barracks from 11 April 2025.

Hope is a dynamic digital projection artwork that will use the facade of the UNESCO World Heritage–listed site as its canvas, absorbing the stories within and connecting them with visitors today. The work responds to the history of the Barracks as a place that provided refuge for people who found themselves in vulnerable situations.

The artwork will appear nightly, when the building becomes a powerful beacon featuring the filmed faces of people reflecting on the rich history of the Barracks and its significant archaeological collection. The artwork is enriched by an audio and visual collage that provides context and inspiration as people share their deeply personal stories of hope.

Central to Hiromi Tango’s Hope installation is Hope Garden, a series of creative workshops held throughout January that brought together people from all walks of life, including those whose voices and perspectives are less often heard, to create small flower artworks using colourful upcycled materials while sharing personal reflections on the universal theme of hope. The flowers will be incorporated into an installation that will grow throughout the artwork display period.

Hiromi Tango (born 1976) is a Japanese–Australian artist who immigrated to Australia in 1998 from Shikoku island, Japan. She has been a resident of Bundjalung Country, Tweed Heads, in northern NSW, since 2014.

This project is proudly supported by the NSW Government through the Blockbuster Funding initiative.
