Featuring drawings, paintings and prints on paper, this exhibition – drawn from the gallery’s permanent collection – celebrates the diversity and dynamism of First Nations artists’ use of paper as a medium. Just as fold lines remain always visible in paper’s memory, expressions of identity, body and self, language, connection to Country, history and community are held in the works on show.
Artists include: Nici Cumpston, d harding, Robert Fielding, Fiona Foley, Brian Martin, Danie Mellor, Queenie McKenzie, Sally Morgan, Gloria Petyarre, Brian Robinson, Teho Ropeyarn, Lisa Waup, and Dominic White.
