Patience and Penitentia

Until September 18

South Australian artist Ida Sophia’s installation Patience and Penitentia confronts silence and estrangement as corrosive cultural practices. As a part of the 2026 SALA Festival, the work focuses on the ‘silent treatment’ and turns the usually hidden form of punishment into a public display inviting conversation and seeking to break cycles. Following the artist’s 40-day durational performance, which finished at the end of August, the purpose-built installation remains on display until Friday, September 18 at Samstag Museum of Art.
