How do First Nations artists approach representation in public spaces?
Taking artist Yhonnie Scarce‘s new commission Missile Park as a starting point architect Kevin O’Brien, and artists Judy Watson, and Tony Albert explore the intersection of architecture, memorial culture, and the representation of First Nations histories in their own projects and practices.
The Institute of Modern Art acknowledges the traditional custodians of the land upon which the IMA now stands, the Jagera, Yuggera, Yugarapul, and Turrbal people. We offer our respect to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people as the first artists of this country. In the spirit of allyship, the IMA will continue to work with First Nations people to celebrate, support, and present their immense past, present, and future contribution to artistic practice and cultural expression.
