More details

The exhibition Ngiyaningy Maran Yaliwaunga Ngaara-li (Our Ancestors Are Always Watching) invites visitors to experience what McGrady describes as ‘a kaleidoscopic compendium of Aboriginal contemporary history’. Deadly moments come to life through her powerful studies in movement, portraiture, and tender observations of Elders, leaders, families, youth, creatives, activists, and cultural warriors. Each photograph is grounded in McGrady’s deep connections to community.
