Armadale’s Metro Gallery hosts Dhumbadha Munga—an exhibition of artworks from previously incarcerated Indigenous artists and the contemporary Indigenous artists who mentor and support them.
Meaning ‘talking knowledge’ in Boonwurrung language, Dhumbadha Munga explores the transformative power of art and cultural exchange between the former inmates and Arts Officers from The Torch, a not-for-profit organisation delivering the Indigenous Arts in Prison and Community program across Victoria.
As it has done for generations, Indigenous culture continues to evolve through talking and sharing knowledge and the 26 artworks from 17 artists demonstrates the interconnectedness of Torch staff and artists exploring a two-way dialogue of artistic and cultural exchange.
Featuring artwork by Chris Austin, Blackgin, Graham Gilbert, Renee Gray, Veronica Mungaloon Hudson, Jeffrey Jackson, Marbukk, Paul McCann, Sean Miller, Kent Morris, Gary Reid, Kelvin Rogers, Ralph Rogers, Garry Scott, Ash Thomas and Robby Wirramanda.
