The exhibition opens at the Glasshouse Regional Gallery on Friday 26th February 2021 and will tour to the Manning Regional Gallery in Taree, Coffs Harbour Regional Gallery, Wadjar Regional Indigenous Gallery AND for the first time to the Boomalli Aboriginal Artists Cooperative in Leichardt, Sydney.
The 2019 art award winner was Gumbaynggirr artist YOWA for her work 'Matriarchs'.
"The winning artwork was bright and colourful with a very unique aesthetic, almost surreal, it felt like you were taken into a dream. The focal point of the artwork shows four elderly Aboriginal women on pedestals, with coastal country in the background and an iridescent sunset .... this is a perfect example of sharing Indigenous perspectives through art." (Amanda Hayman, Curator)
