in a part of your mind, i am you brings together new and existing works by Polo shaped around a five-act narrative, punctuated with works by Ugo Rondinone, Tracey Emin and Urs Fischer, on loan from the Art Gallery of NSW.

Exhibition Dates: 28 June – 24 August 2025

Tom Polo‘s practice encompasses painting and installation and explores the notions of conversation, gesture, and emotional exchange as embodied acts of portraiture. in a part of your mind, i am you will conceptualise the gallery as a stage, structured in five acts, wherein works blur boundaries between the self and others to mask and unveil the complexities of our inner worlds.


The exhibition will feature new works, including a series developed during the artist’s recent residency in New York. Additionally, a survey of existing works will be restaged to create a thematic narrative punctuated by artworks by renowned international artists Tracey Emin, Ugo Rondinone, and Urs Fischer.
