22.01.2022 INMATE ART COMPETITION CELEBRATES NAIDOC Long Bay’s Boom Gate Gallery has unveiled 50 artworks at a NAIDOC art exhibition, after more than 200 inmates around th...e state put paintbrush to canvas for the competition. The artworks focus on this year’s NAIDOC theme Always Was, Always Will Be, which recognises that First Nations people have occupied and cared for this continent for more than 65,000 years. The very first footprints in Australia belonged to Aboriginal people who have maintained ongoing spiritual and cultural connections to land and sea, Aboriginal Strategy and Policy Unit Senior Project Officer Jermaine Haymond says. In the spirit of NAIDOC being an inclusive event, the art competition has been open to all inmates both Indigenous and non-Indigenous with three female finalists and three male finalists chosen. The artworks were judged by Aboriginal artists Djon Mundine, Brook Andrew and Reko Rennie. The 2020 NAIDOC Art Competition Exhibition, organised by Corrective Services NSW’s Aboriginal Strategy and Policy Unit, will be displayed at the gallery until 23 July. National NAIDOC Week 2020 celebrations will be held from the 8-15 November after being rescheduled due to COVID-19 restrictions. #CSNSW #BoomGateGallery #AboriginalArt #LongBay #NAIDOC2020 #AlwaysWasAlwaysWillBe
