Swingers - The Art of Mini Golf

RISING presents

Swingers - The Art of Mini Golf

4th June 2025 - 31st August 2025 @ Flinders Street Railway Station

Flinders Street Station becomes a playable art exhibition featuring nine mini golf holes designed by female-identifying artists.

The art of mini golf comes to Flinders Street Station. An exhibition of rebellion and play. For anyone who swings outside the lines.

Flinders Street Station becomes a holey new world with Swingers, a playable art exhibition featuring nine mini golf holes and any number of untold obstacles.

Each hole is created by a female-identifying artist. Miranda July, the artist, filmmaker and writer who gave us the off-beat brilliance of All Fours goes 'All Fores' for the project. Kaylene Whiskey sets course, weaving pop icons through traditional Anangu culture. Tokyo's Saeborg brings latex creatures with a cartoonish menace. Expect more twists around every nook, cranny and bend.

We've chosen only the most adventurous artists because mini golf's radical roots go deep. The game was dreamed up by 19th-century Scottish women who were banned from the "real" courses but refused to sit on the sidelines. Over the centuries, it's continued to be a game for rule breakers, from fuelling a putt-putt craze in prohibition-era Los Angeles (as late-night booze haunts), to being one of the first desegregated public spaces in the USA in the 1940s.

For Swingers, RISING taps into the subversive history of mini golf with an art exhibition about rebellion and play. For anyone with a curious mind, a competitive edge, or who swings outside the lines.

Pick your putter. Choose your line. It's art that fills the cup.
