About the exhibition:

Memory of Water by Antikjrita woman Natalie Austin speaks of the artists connection to Country as motif within her life. Natalie traces her life from child, teen, mother and now grandmother and the meaningful role that water has in her understanding of self, Country and community. Natalie has worked with Wangkangurru woman and independent curator Marika Davies to develop this exhibition, an inaugural collaboration between The Mill and regional South Australian Aboriginal artists. The exhibition will be accompanied by a catalogue essay written by Yankunytjatjara / Kokatha woman and well-known poet Ali Cobby Eckermann.

Memory of Water is presented in partnership with Ku Arts, Ripple Effect/HumanKind and City of Adelaide.
