This exhibition will bring together historical and spiritual objects from the collection of Robert Bleakley, and place them in context against contemporary screen based works alluding to ideas of transformation.
Bleakley’s collection provides a unique insight into primary cultural practices, and includes pieces reflecting Tibetan, Indian and Pacific peoples, as well as a significant collection of Aboriginal bark paintings.
The character of this exhibition comes together with the scholarly but poetic visions of Bleakley and the highly esteemed Aboriginal curator, Djon Mundine.
