Coming Home is a solo exhibition by Jenny Murray-Jones (Yorta Yorta, Baraparapa), drawing from the collection of the KHT as well as recent works by the artist. The exhibition showcases Jenny’s unique lyrical style.
Jenny’s work offers a poignant exploration of family reconnection, delving into themes of Country, Kinship, and the enduring impact of colonisation and institutional life. Through her rich and emotive use of colour and texture, Murray-Jones captures both the beauty and complexity of her family’s journey. Her works tell stories of resilience, loss, and the healing power of reconnecting with family and Country. Each piece invites viewers into the artist’s personal history where moments of joy and pain are intertwined, reflecting the strength of her cultural identity.
