26 February - 24 April 2021

This comprehensive exhibition unites the responses of international and Australian artists, Indigenous and non-Indigenous, to the implications of Maralinga as an example of how terra nullius has seeped into this country’s psyche, rendering land uninhabitable and history unspeakable. And it also goes much further, presenting provocative reactions from Japanese artists to Hiroshima and Fukushima, New York artists to Ground Zero, Samoan to Pacific test sites, Croatian to Ustaše concentration camps, Georgian artists to Soviet monumentalism.
