The Unfinished Business exhibition reveals the stories of 30 First Nations people with disability.
Their deeply personal stories are complex and intertwined with Australia’s political and social history, which has resulted in today’s unacceptably high rates of disability in Australia’s First Nations communities. This was a collaborative project between participants and Artist and Social Documentarian, Belinda Mason Knierim OAM.
With thanks to Australian Museum for loaning Unfinished Business to Manningham.
Warning: First Nations Peoples should be aware that this exhibition contains images, voices, or names of deceased persons.
