First Nations artists Peter Turner and Clem Newchurch have worked with the South Australian Museum’s collections, and particularly the works of George French Angas, to inspire their exhibition. Drawing on their Ancestors’ practices prior to European colonisation and informed by material documented by Angas, Peter and Clem have created carvings, painted and woven works in this celebration of continuing culture.
