You're invited to join us for opening of Neva-gu dyugurpa, From West Coast to City Centre, a new exhibition by Jayda Wilson that brings together multiple works that explore the (re)telling of family history through archival material found locally in South Australia and internationally in Osaka, Japan. These documents of Jayda Wilson’s mama-gu mama-gu ngundyu Neva Wilson (b.1934 - passed. 2016), Wilson explores ideologies of blood memory and sovereignty through sound, photography and print.

Jayda Wilson is a proud Gugada and Wirangu emerging artist living and working on unceded Kaurna Yarta. Wilson’s practice is a journey to reclaiming their mother tongue through the (re)telling of family history with their visual practice acting as a site for (re)memory and (re)archiving. By working in mediums of sound and print they ground themselves culturally and affirm sovereignty through Gugada and Wirangu wangga, embedded in country on the Far West Coast of South Australia.
