For the first time since its inception in 2008, Revealed will be in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander hands, as the Aboriginal Arts Centre Hub of Western Australia (AACHWA) takes the reins for 2024.
Featuring more than 150 artworks by almost seventy Aboriginal artists from across multiple language and cultural groups in Western Australia (representing twenty-seven WA Aboriginal art centres, plus twelve independent artists), Revealed: New and Emerging WA Aboriginal Artists explores unique narratives of Country, culture and regional life through a diversity of practice and mediums spanning painting, drawing, silkprint, textiles, photography, animation, glass sculpture and linocut.
