Revealed: New and Emerging WA Aboriginal Artists returns to Boorloo (Perth) with an exhibition at the Perth Institute of Contemporary Arts (PICA) from April 18 to June 14.
More than 100 Aboriginal artists, representing 28 Aboriginal art centres, as well as 10 independent artists, have contributed a total of 185 artworks to this year’s exhibition, curated by Whadjuk, Balladong and Wilman Noongar artist and independent curator Zali Morgan.
Showcasing the diversity, depth and cultural strength of Aboriginal art practices, Revealed transports audiences across the vast state of Western Australia -from the red dirt of the Kimberley to the towering forests of the South-West – with works spanning painting, printmaking, photography, drawing, sculpture and weaving.
“At its heart,” Zali says, “Revealed honours the diversity of language groups, materials, and methodologies that shape contemporary Aboriginal art.
“Artists continue to ground their practices in deep cultural memory, interwoven with lived experiences of navigating colonial systems, sustaining community connection, and asserting identity in dynamic, ever-evolving environments.” The Revealed Exhibition and Art Market provide platforms for Aboriginal artists, mostly based in remote and regional communities, to share their works with the wider public and derive a sustainable income to support themselves and their communities.
The Revealed Art Market, taking place at WA Museum Boola Bardip on Saturday, April 18, is supported by a family-friendly program of dance, music, talks and activities.
All proceeds from Revealed sales are directly returned to artists and their art centres.
The Revealed Exhibition is proudly delivered under the custodianship of the Aboriginal Art Centre Hub WA (AACHWA) – the peak advocacy and resource body for Aboriginal art centres in the state – and is presented in association with the Perth Institute of Contemporary Arts (PICA) and WA Museum Boola Bardip.
