An installation view from ‘Looking Out, Looking In’ featuring Brett Whiteley’s Self portrait – showing seven incarnations 1970, Jenny Watson's Sleeping in New York 1991 and Chatchai Puipia's Siamese smile: Siamese intellectual (from 'Siamese smile' series) 1995, March 2023 / Collection: QAGOMA / Photograph: Joe Ruckli, QAGOMA
