Country is Calling is a visual art exhibition that celebrates the work and stories of the Jinibara people; the Traditional Custodians of the mountains, valleys and hinterlands of the Sunshine Coast.
Curated by prominent Jinibara artist Jason Murphy, the exhibition explores the intricate connection between people and place. The four featured Jinibara artists — Jason Murphy, Caitlin Murphy, Allan Kina and Aunty Enid Morris — are each inspired by, and called to create, by country itself.
Country is Calling is an affirmation of the continued connection to culture that Jinibara peoples embody; an offering of deeply embedded practice, showcasing that culture is alive and evolving and that in this aliveness we find connection, truth and thriving arts and cultural practices across the broader Sunshine Coast region.
