Country is Calling

'Country is Calling' is a visual art exhibition that celebrates the work and stories of the Jinibara people; the Traditional Custodians of the mountains, valleys and hinterlands of the Sunshine Coast.
Curated by prominent Jinibara artist Jason Murphy, the exhibition explores the intricate connection between people and place and each of the featured artists are inspired by, and called to create, by country itself.

'Country is Calling' is an affirmation of the continued connection to culture that Jinibara peoples embody; an offering of deeply embedded practice, showcasing that culture is alive and evolving and that in this aliveness we find connection, truth and thriving arts and cultural practices across the broader Sunshine Coast region.

“I think the words traditional and modern are antiquated. Culture is a growing thing; always growing, always moving, always alive. If we categorise it with something that diminishes its growth, we diminish our own growth.” CURATOR, JASON MURPHY.

This exhibition will run from Saturday 27 August, 10am, through until Friday 30 September 2022.

Free event. No registration required.
