Joyce Maynge 25 is a current exhibition celebrating the career and cultural impact of drag artist Joyce Maynge. The exhibition documents Maynge’s practice across performance, community engagement, and LGBTQIA+ visibility, marking her contribution to Sydney’s drag and queer cultural landscape.
The exhibition presents photographic works, personal imagery, and visual documentation of performance, alongside an interactive installation inviting visitor participation through a purpose-built “selfie bed.” Together, these elements reflect the intimacy, humour, and theatricality central to Maynge’s drag persona, while situating her work within broader histories of drag as performance, storytelling, and self-authorship.
