CAN: Place Names Language Exhibition


This colourful exhibition features iconography and language important to Walyalup and surrounds created during Place Names Walyalup. Through the decoding and sharing process, Noongar community created 35 artworks featuring iconography important to the Walyalup area.  CAN has worked to honour the work of the community by creating posters that share their artwork and act as a fantastic educational resource that can be used to promote Noongar culture, heritage and creativity.  From these posters, a screen exhibition was developed in celebration of Noongar Language during NAIDOC week.
