Ray Thomas: Yeerung’s Journey

Celebrating over four decades of art, culture and storytelling, Yeerung’s Journey is the first major solo exhibition to be held at the KHT of artworks by Brabrawooloong Gunnai artist Ray Thomas.

Yeerung’s Journey offers insight into Ray’s evolution as both an artist and a cultural leader. Working across painting, drawing, sculpture, printmaking and, more recently, large-scale murals, Ray has developed a distinctive and powerful visual language grounded in family, Country, memory and lived experience. His work speaks to both personal and collective histories, expressing resilience, cultural continuity and healing.

The exhibition takes its name from Gunnai lore, where Yeerung, the emu wren, is the totem carried by men, and embodies identity, belonging and responsibility.
