Blak Douglas and Jarra Karalinar Steel Examine Signage in Sydney Show

The two-artist exhibition 'Sign Language' at Eloise Cato Gallery in Sydney features Blak Douglas and Jarra Karalinar Steel, running from 1 July to 1 August 2026. Douglas uses road signage for 'savvy activism,' while Steel critiques the reduction of Indigenous imagery and language to consumable symbols through advertising and lightbox signage. A key work is Douglas's 'Are we there yet (study),' 2025, which renames Australia's major cities with their correct First Nations language references, ordered by 2025 census population numbers. The show runs at Eloise Cato Gallery, Sydney.
