Inspired by Bruce Pascoe’s bestselling book Dark Emu (2014), the exhibition ‘Seeds and Sovereignty’ draws artworks from QAGOMA’s Indigenous Australian Art collection to explore the deep knowledge and relationships Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples have developed and sustained with plants and Country over millennia.

‘Seeds and Sovereignty’ included Collection works (listed below), as well as works on loan, and was on display in GOMA’s Gallery 3.5 from 2 March to 8 September 2024.
