SAM Talks: Drawing Wall #39

SAM Talks: Drawing Wall #39

with Troy Firebrace 

Join Yorta Yorta artist Troy Firebrace and SAM Curator Belinda Briggs as they discuss the dual contexts of SAM Drawing Wall #39.
 
Troy uses layers of meaning within his work, encouraging his audience to look again. 

At a first glance, we might recognise the familiar imagery of a dry riverbed in the summer sun—upon closer inspection, however, we discover some of the complexities of living in the modern world. 

Learn how Troy uses art as a tool to educate students and audiences about Aboriginal culture in this SAM Talks: Drawing Wall #39.
