"Making art is quite therapeutic", Tracey Moffatt once said of herself. This brief statement reveals much of the artist's personality and above all about her manner of interpreting the artistic experience, a practice that frequently refers to her personal episodes and events. An Aborigine by birth, Tracey Moffatt grew up as a foster child in a white family in line with the policy of the time, and she quickly became fascinated by the pop culture of those years. Images drawn from magazines, cinema and television began to form the symbolic universe that would become a point of reference in most of her work, alongside the ever-present and in part autobiographical theme of ostracism and segregation experienced in all its aspects: racial, social, sexual.

do it (australia) is a continuation of curator Hans Ulrich Obrist's initiative do it, the longest-running artist-led project in the world. During a time of international lockdowns precipitated by COVID-19, Kaldor Public Art Projects commissioned 18 Australian artists to write simple instructions for audiences to follow at home. Each instruction can be used to generate an artwork, whether an object, a performance, or something else entirely. The do it (australia) publication is a do-it-yourself "instruction manual" containing all commissioned instructions alongside essays and artist interviews.
