A Together In Art Pocket Exhibition curated by Erin Vink
3 June is Mabo Day and, as we commemorate the extraordinarily courageous efforts of Eddie Koiki Mabo to overturn the notion that his Country on Mer (Murray Island) was terra nullius (land belonging to no one), we should also champion all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people who have battled for land rights, and those who empower and inspire each other. Today we recognise your long history of caring for Country, your resilience, and your survival.
Erin Vink is assistant curator of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander art at the Art Gallery of New South Wales
