DVAA gathers six curators from Darwin and Alice Springs to respond to the notion of Territory Nomads – artists who come back and forth from the Territory; “artists who have deliberately left a mark on the Territory as an explicit part of their practice”.
Questions around Indigenous/non-Indigenous labelling and the need to define who is or isn’t a Territorian artist are the starting point at DVAA, which led to this exhibition as a curatorial premise.
