South East Queensland is a testing ground for many Australian First Nations artists. It is a place of experimentation and interrogation where artists share their own stories in their own words.

With a focus on First Nations artists living in or from South East Queensland, this exhibition features works from the Moreton Bay Regional Council Art Collection and examines ideas surrounding sovereignty, the continuing impacts of colonisation and connections to place.

Exhibition developed by Moreton Bay Regional Council.
