When the rains end, creeks and rivers run full. Suddenly, deserts bloom with all the colours of the rainbow as new life emerges. As Tony Albert, artistic director of the Fifth National Indigenous Art Triennial, says, “After the rain there are always new beginnings.”
Albert’s creative practice has long been based on adapting and critiquing images made by others. It is easy to see this exhibition is a giant collage, where each work, or group of works, is an element of a larger whole, all working together in harmony.
