Led by First Nations curatorium Coby Edgar and Jason Wing, and joined by Bankstown Arts Centre Director, Rachael Kiang, Same Same/Different features the latest works from 17 prominent First Nations and artists of colour that reach for common ground.

Same Same/Different draws inspiration from a common phrase used in Australia’s Top End, where Asian and First Nations communities describe their experiences as “same same, but different”. This concept encapsulates the exhibition’s focus on the potential for shared understanding without erasing individual cultural identities.

Featuring artists: Claudia Nicholson / Edwina Green / Gary Lee / Gillian Kayrooz / Jason Wing / James Tylor / Jamie Eastwood / Jazz Money / Joan Ross / Karla Dickens / Kien Situ / Maddison Gibbs / Morgan Hogg / Ruth Ju-Shih Li / Salllvage / Wen Dung-Chuan / Wona Bae and Charlie Lawler.

Same Same/Different, opening on Saturday 23 November 2024 and continues until Saturday 1 February 2025.
