AN exhibition showcasing the work of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander artists was launched at McClelland Gallery in Langwarrin last week.

Current/Teho Ropeyarn is the third exhibition in a series of works from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander artists at McClelland Gallery. Teho Ropeyarn is from Injinoo, Cape York Peninsula, Queensland. He holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the College of Fine Arts (UNSW) in Sydney and is currently based in Cairns. His prints focus on the natural world “from the inside out”, Ropeyarn said. “The stories embedded in these prints are not just about place—they are about family, belonging, and continuity.”

McClelland’s artistic and executive director Lisa Byrne said “the Current exhibition series was established to provide a space for the amplification of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Island cultural practice through art. The series aims to present the respective voices and diverse perspectives from across Australia’s First People’s culture to audiences nationally. “Through projects like Current, McClelland aims to create meaningful opportunities for Australia’s First Nations artists, reflecting our commitment to continued cultural dialogue.”
