Four of Sally M Nangala Mulda's paintings are the focal point of the current exhibition at the University of Queensland Art Museum 'Dusk of Nations'. The exhibition featured works from Australian-based artists exploring the resistance, subversion, and defence of nationhood. The selected works survey varying perspectives of national identity and highlight the importance of recognising these differences of experience.
“Scenes of communal joy and peace are hung alongside scenes of housing insecurities, domestic violence and police brutality. Through her paintings, Mulda generously offers us a glimpse of her community – a place of both injustice and hope.”
It was wonderful to see Sally’s paintings of her life in Mpwetyerre represented in this thought-provoking exhibition.
