Life after life, the second installation in Heide’s new Project Gallery, presents the work of Melbourne artist Richard Grigg.

A diorama reminiscent of a scene from an early Renaissance fresco, Grigg describes life after life as a ‘theatre of ideas’, inviting his audience to construct narratives from its symbolic, psychological and historical resonances.
