PITCHED- tent, solar lights, wood, single channel video projection, no sound, duration 4.19 min. Artist PENNY COSS.
2026 BEECHWORTH BIENNALE installed at SITE 3, Provenance Restaurant Ford Street Beechworth.
A dome tent is pitched in an unlikely place. It recalls the makeshift camps which amassed in 1852 when gold was discovered in Beechworth. The inaccessible location of this tent evokes the unreachable heights of hope and ambition that drove small-scale miners and prospectors, many of whom ended in bankruptcy, crippling debt, and destitution.
The building the tent stands on a popular hatted restaurant, a former Bank that turned extracted gold into capital. Inside the tent a video was projected onto the walls, visible at night. Played on loop it begins with a moon of rock as seen through the viewfinder of a microscope and then folds into vibrant faceted colours of other minerals recorded with a geological petrographic microscope . This follows documentation of glistening mineral sands falling like gold dust. Lastly, the video pans out to a portrait of the artist as a geologist’s daughter, inspecting rock samples drawn from a sample bag in her father’s archives.
A white moon is suspended on a stick outside the tent. Not quite full and not quite new this point of the moon cycle some consider an auspicious time for reflection and forgiveness. This is also the predicted moon phase for this year’s Biennale.

Possibly one of the more difficult exhibition sites, we thank Penny Coss for accepting the challenge and bringing the work PITCHED to the event this year.

Stockroom // Penny Coss

Soft, shifting layers of pigment settle and disperse in Body Particulates, where material and movement sit in delicate balance. @cossp.art allows the work to unfold through gravity, pressure and chance, guiding the process as the image slowly emerges.

💌 View this work in our online Stockroom or contact us to arrange a time to see it in person at Cathedral Square.

SITE 16 - The Provenance Restaurant, a former bank building. Ford Street Beechworth.

PENNY COSS

Title: Pitched
Tent, solar lights, wood, single channel video projection, no sound, dur 4.19 min.

The artist Penny says…My installation features a dome tent pitched in an unlikely place. At Site 16, the tent recalls the makeshift camps which amassed in 1852 when gold was discovered at Spring Creek, Beechworth.

The inaccessible location of this tent evokes the unreachable heights of hope and ambition that drove small-scale miners and prospectors, many of whom ended in bankruptcy, crippling debt, and destitution.

The building is the former Oriental Bank that turned extracted gold into capital before its bankruptcy in the wake of the 1884 world financial collapse.

Inside a tent, a video will be projected onto the walls, visible at night. Played on loop it begins with a moon of rock as seen through the viewfinder of a microscope. It then folds into vibrant faceted
colours of other minerals recorded with a geological petrographic microscope.

The video mobilises matriarchal familial history as a counter-archive, re-situating the history of mining within intergenerational memory and exposing its entanglements with extraction, inheritance, and ecological consequence.

Do not miss this non traditional FREE EXHIBITION with art installations to discover throughout the town of Beechworth in truly unique and surprising locations!

Tell your friends and bring your family!
