The Art of Mini Golf
Play your way through nine adventurous mini golf holes, each designed by a leading woman artist, exploring the game’s subversive history.
Artist, filmmaker and writer Miranda July (All Fours) goes ‘All Fores’ for the project. Kaylene Whiskey sets course with pop icons woven through Anangu culture. Tokyo’s Saeborg unleashes latex creatures of cartoonish menace, Delaine Le Bas squares the circle, and Natasha Tontey entwines speculative storytelling with mythology, technology, and alternative histories. Atlanta rapper BKTHERULA joins sound artist Kate Miller to make swamp flowers bloom. Australian duo Soda Jerk open an algorithmic K-hole, prolific photographer Pat Brassington dives headfirst, and Danielle Brathwaite-Shirley brings her trademark immersive playfulness to an exclusive new commission for this UK premiere.
Only the most audacious artists are here because mini golf itself was born of rebellion. The game was originally invented by 19th century Scottish women who were banned from ‘real’ courses but refused to sit on the sidelines.
Pick your putter. It’s art that fills the cup.
