Still floored by the enthusiasm of visitors and the wisdom of panelists at Feminine Play's Opening Night. Thanks to everyone who made the evening so special. And to Matto Lucas for the beautiful photographs! These were commissioned by Creative Vic as part of Melbourne International Games Week 2024.

People are seated playing games while others stand behind them to watch. An information decal titled 'Feminine Play' (text indistinguishable) is on the wall in the background and fairy lights hang overhead. A plastic figurine of a dog sits inside a tiny plastic bathtub inside a plexiglass-cased PC. The images is framed by florals attached to the outside of the PC. The backs of two figures in shadow are viewing a tarot-inspired projection on the wall. The projection depicts a figure with red glyphs on their arm holding a sickle that drips blood. A person holds an smart phone that displays an AR game that features Banh Chung meal preparation.
