Jintulu: People of the Sun
Jintulu: People of the Sun is an exhibition by Walmajarri artist Murungkurr Terry Murray, Persian South African artist Natalie Scholtz and Martu artist Curtis Taylor. Using filmmaking, photography, installation and painting, the artists present a powerful exploration of colonialism, race relations and Indigenous storytelling.
Experience a new reading of the significant art collections of the Berndt Museum, Cruthers Collection of Women’s Art and The University of Western Australia Art Collection as they are placed in conversation with new works, uncovering the shifting perspectives of a dynamic and turbulent contemporary Australia.
A Perth Festival exhibition supported by Visual Arts Program Partner Wesfarmers Arts.
