The Bent Western exhibition surveyed the work of queer Australian artists who forged connections to Western Sydney in exciting and challenging ways over the last thirty years and made important contributions to queer cultures in the region and beyond. Bent Western examined the work of queer artists through a bent lens, acknowledging how Western Sydney itself is marked by broader notions of multicultural difference and change. Bent Western was an official event of the 30th Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras Festival 2008.
