Sutton Gallery stands on what always was and always will be the land of the Wurundjeri people of the Kulin nation. We respectfully recognise their ancestors and Elders past and present. We acknowledge Aboriginal connection to material and creative practice on these lands for more than 60,000 years.
Anne Ferran’s iconic photographic series Scenes on the death of nature (1986) is included in the major exhibition Namedropping, recently opened at the Museum of Old and New Art (MONA) in Nipaluna/Hobart.
Bringing together over 200 artworks and objects, the sprawling exhibition emerges out of an interest in the nature of status and its preoccupations.
