‘Violent Salt’ reflects on the experiences of the marginalised, underrepresented and the silenced with works by Abdul Abdullah, Vernon Ah Kee, Richard Bell, Daniel Boyd, Megan Cope, Karla Dickens, S.J. Norman, Yhonnie Scarce and Jemima Wyman. Issues of racism and discrimination against First Nations peoples and minority groups and the disrespect for and desecration of culture and the natural environment are in the spotlight. The exhibition offers a platform for the artists to speak their truths and presents an opportunity for understanding and connection.
