Join N’yettin-ngal Wagur – Yeye Wongie Curator Zali Morgan and artists Brett Nannup and Amanda Bell in conversation with JCG Community Engagement Coordinator Ron Bradfield Jnr on the last Sunday for this exhibition period.

These new commissions are in response to The Herbert Mayer Collection of Carrolup Artwork. Through a diverse range of mediums and styles, the artists bring to the present-day the intertwined stories of the Carrolup child artists and their own personal context. The commissions reflect the aesthetics, design and themes present in the original Carrolup works, honouring Noongar histories and the enduring legacy of the Carrolup artists and ancestors.

This conversation will reflect on this exhibition, curatorial decision-making and conversations held during its time here at John Curtin Gallery. An opportunity to hear about what’s next for this group of early-career Noongar artists.

Questions will be welcomed at the end of each section. Teas and coffees available.
