Desert Mob turns 30, and while official celebrations are on hold until 2021, ‘Desert Mob 2020’ offers a mix of digital and traditional platforms to continue their showcase of contemporary Aboriginal art.
This year’s exhibition features hundreds of new, innovative artworks in a range of media from paintings, sculpture, weaving and wood carving to prints, photography and works on paper, by emerging and established artists from Desart-member art centres from the desert regions and communities of the Northern Territory, South Australia and Western Australia; as well as the Desert Mob online gallery, a virtual symposium of powerful projects, presentations and artist talks.
