Episode Details

Melbourne’s new art exhibition “Are you lonely tonight?” dives deep into modern loneliness, blending raw emotion with digital-age struggles like doomscrolling and bed rot. Featuring artists including Lucy Liu and Polly Borland, it explores the difference between being alone and feeling lonely — and how connection can bloom even in isolation. Patrick Pound’s “Museum of Loneliness” showcases found objects that echo our digital solitude, while Sophie Prince frames loneliness as a chemical state that demands physical care. Natasha Matila-Smith’s haunting “If I die, please delete my Soundcloud” and Seth Brown’s surreal mustard bottle with a hot dog arm add layers of humor and heartbreak, revealing how we cope — and sometimes fail — in a world that’s always online but often painfully alone.
