‘Anniversary Group Show I: Country Lines’ showcases over 30 artworks by four artists; Joanne Currie Nalingu, George Hairbrush Tjungurrayi, Yvonne Mills Stanley and Rod Moss. Before the gallery relocates to Bowen Hills, this final exhibition at FireWorks Gallery’s Doggett Street space highlights the diversity of their represented artists. Whilst the works span an eclectic range of mediums and styles – varying from linear acrylic paintings to more representative graphite and landscape images – they are connected in their visceral depiction of our connection to land alongside evocations of Indigenous life and culture.
Director Michael Eather comments that ‘the ongoing curatorial theme underpinning the gallery’s exhibition program and associated projects remains the desire to present artworks by Indigenous (remote and urban) and non-Indigenous artists alongside each other.’
