Gapu Exhibition Chronicles 20 Years of Printmaking at Djilpin Arts in Arnhem Land

Running from 27 March to 2 May 2026, the Gapu exhibition at Midpul Art Gallery showcases over one hundred pieces that reflect two decades of printmaking at Djilpin Arts. This not-for-profit organization, owned by Aboriginal people, is situated on the ancestral lands of the Bagala People of the Jawoyn Nation in Arnhem Land. The exhibition highlights the role of art in safeguarding knowledge, language, and memories across generations. It illustrates the evolution of printmaking techniques alongside Djilpin Arts' own journey. Among the featured works is M. Hall's 2007 silk screen print Mukarra, provided by Djilpin Arts in the Northern Territory. This exhibition stands as a testament to cultural preservation within Indigenous communities.
