I am Here by Indigenous Design Labs
Exhibition: Friday 19 January – Saturday 2 March 2024
Launch: 10am, Saturday 20 January
The tapestry of our belonging and the vibrant threads of our cultures are intimately entwined in the life stories of our Elders. In a world often veiled by artificiality, the true essence of belonging unfurls when we embrace the real-time connection with those who carry the wisdom of the past, binding our hearts in a dance of shared experiences and timeless journeys.
