Franklin Arts Centre is pleased to present
Wansolwara
Opening Saturday 24 January at 11 am
The title comes from the Solomon Islands pijin meaning 'one salt water' and with it notions of one ocean, one people, one place. In the Solomon Islands local artists working with print often depict how their lives are so dependent on water - for sustenance, as a mean of transportation, and as part of their rich cultural mythology.
Artists include Mita Gilbert, Sheree Stone, Rosemary Mortimer, Neil Emmerson, Christine Wylie, Antonia O’Mahony, Irena Keckes, Damon Kawolsky, Jacqueline Aust, Posi Prasad, Emma McLellan, Hyun Ju Kim, Suho Yoo, John McKaig, Deborah Crowe, Nofo Me Fale, Faith McManus, Christopher White, Lee Brogan, Gabrielle Belz, Sheyne Tuffery, Luisa Tora, Ruby Oakley, Tom Ludvigson, Elle Anderson, Chad Andrews, Val Cuthbert, Mark Graver, Esther Hansen, Marion Wassenaar and Winston Shacklock.
Wansolwara was curated by Steve Lovett, Cerisse Palalangi and Struan Hamilton.
