Free exhibitions are a great way to encounter art, whether it is at your local gallery or a big institution. Here is a hand-picked list of free exhibitions in Queensland this August. Three artists present concurrent solo exhibitions. Scattered is an installation by Pierce, which composed collected fragments, objects and created artworks to form a tactile landscape dispersed across the gallery walls. Meanwhile, Wer Wer (Boundaries) features a body of work by Mabo that translated repurposed archival mark-making by her father, Eddie Koiki Mabo.
