Midweek Meetup: White Rabbit Gallery

Midweek Meetup: White Rabbit Gallery

Wed, Sep 16, 1:00 AM
From The Sydney Tea Meetup
4.7

Contemporary Chinese art gallery White Rabbit has a lovely little teahouse on its ground floor. Come meet for dumplings and a cuppa before/after a visit to the (free) exhibition. **EXHIBITION:** **BLACK MYTH** As ancient as human civilisation itself, the power of myth is embedded within our cultural DNA. Passed down through millennia in traditions and tales, myths have inspired artists, writers, and thinkers from all walks of life. Yet in today’s technology-driven age of uncertainty, what role can myth still play? Drawing from the viral Chinese video game Black Myth: Wukong (2024)—a contemporary retelling of the classic novel Journey to the West—the exhibition Black Myth explores the dark side of myth in our modern world. [More info](https://whiterabbitcollection.org/exhibition/black-myth/) **Cost**: Buy your own tea/food ([see menu and prices](https://whiterabbitcollection.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/Folded-Menu-2025.pdf))
