Kumarangk is an intergenerational love letter for Ngarrindjeri women; an exhibition that explores the survival of culture, and resistance to colonial destruction.
Kumarangk showcases a mix of newly commissioned and existing works from Ngarrindjeri women artists. Sandra Saunders' Hindmarsh Island Collection will be remounted for the first time since it was first exhibited 20 years ago, alongside a major new painting that will conclude the collection. Through a series of paintings and wire works, the Hindmarsh Island Collection retells the story of the building of the bridge to Kumarangk (colonially known as hindmarsh island) and the resistance of the Ngarrindjeri women and allies.
The exhibition also features major new works from Mardawi Art Collective, which includes the legendary Aunty Ellen Trevorrow, alongside Elizabeth Rankine, Margi Sumner, Temeika Campbell, Bessie Rigney, Zemiah Campbell, Debra Rankine and Stephanie Russell. Kumarangk will also feature new weaving pieces from Aunty Betty Sumner, Sonya Rankine, Carly Tarkari Dodd and ceramics from Tiarnie Edwards.
Warning:
This exhibition contains images of Aboriginal, Torres Strait Islander and other Indigenous Peoples
who have passed.
