Artists from the new Umi Arts art exhibition join Karen Dorante on Let’s Talk. Talking about their works.
UMI Arts presents its second annual Freshwater Saltwater touring exhibition curated by Teho Ropeyarn.
Freshwater Saltwater: Existence explores the concept of “existence” for contemporary Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander artists who live and work in Far North Queensland.
The works selected for this exhibition reveal the existence of the artists, their life and experiences and motives applied in their current practice by representing self; traditionally, contemporarily, metaphorically, visually, historically and culturally.
The twenty-two artists featured in Freshwater Saltwater: Existence represent a region that is diverse in history and strong in cultural practice.
The exhibition will be open Monday to Friday, 9am – 5pm, until the 6th of June.
Where: Judith Wright Centre | 420 Brunswick Street, Fortitude Valley
Cost: Free
