NO BLACK SEAS
No Black Seas was a development project and exhibition of new works by 11 artists from Arts Ceduna, a South Australian coastal town nestled on the Great Australian Bight. The exhibition addressed the artists' cultural and personal connections with the Bight and the impact that drilling would have on Country and community; sounding the alarm for an issue that is not only theirs but all of ours.
The exhibition was the culmination of the artistic development project partnership with Arts Ceduna, ACE Open led by Ku Arts; supported by TARNANTHI.
The exhibition, a culmination of 10 months of working conceptually through artistic development showcased a depth of creative practices across mediums of sculpture, photography and film, painting and printmaking. The exhibition, a resounding success is a credit to the dedication and commitment of Arts Ceduna artists.
