Little love letters

A Together in Art Pocket Exhibition curated by Coby Edgar

An ode to our hearts and mental health during this time of trauma, stress and uncertainty. Taking cues from the Gallery’s collection of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander art, I have written a few little love letters to help you through.

Coby Edgar is curator of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander art at the Art Gallery of New South Wales
