This is Dharug woman Leanne Tobin’s first solo exhibition since her inclusion in the 2022 Sydney Biennale, exploring the past and present custodianship of the Georges River.

Tobin will explore creation stories and contemporary use of the land surrounding the river, including personal stories that engage with Tobin’s family legacy. The exhibition features three key elements: a mural, video animation and a suspended glass work. The centrepiece will be a series of blown-glass eels suspended among the industrial architecture of the Switch Gallery.
