Guest curated by Dave Collins and Shay Jayawardena, this exhibition offers a snapshot of the marks people leave on surfaces across the Northern Territory.
Graffiti, murals, scrawls, and even signs, all share the same purpose: they are forms of communication. Some commercial, some graffiti, some simply ways of sending messages, whether it’s a quick tag on a pole or a large‑scale mural on a wall, this exhibition shows us that each mark says something about the people and places that made it.
