SNAP BLAK
Exhibition story
'Snap Blak' brings together dynamic examples of contemporary Aboriginal and Torres Strait Island photography that champion Indigenous self-representation, with assertions of visual sovereignty that resist prevalent stereotypes and re-present their people.
'Snap Blak' is on display from August 2025 to September 2026 in Gallery 3.5 at GOMA. To make the most of your visit, check the exhibition dates, get information on getting here and parking, and find out about Gallery accessibility.
