Nyini Woka: My Place
Exhibitions and Shows
Nyini Woka: My Place is a temporary exhibition presented by Shepparton Art Museum (SAM). Curated by SAM Curator – Indigenous Belinda Briggs and guest curator Chloe Jones, Nyini Woka: My Place begins with a resonant question: Where do you stand, and what stories stand with you?
Bringing together artworks from the Carrillo and Ziyin Gantner Indigenous Art Collection and recent works by contemporary Yorta Yorta artists, Nyini Woka: My Place explores the dialogue that emerges between Yorta Yorta stories of woka (Country), nanyak (ways of being, seeing, doing, knowing) and broader First Nations perspectives.
Spanning an array of creative practices and stories from across the vast continent, Nyini Woka: My Place reveals threads of belonging, resistance, humour, memory and strength, affirming living culture and community voices while extending an invitation to visitors to consider what it means to be here, today, on Yorta Yorta Country and beyond.
Nyini Woka: My Place is showing at SAM with free admission.
