Touchstone Talks: Art, Wilderness, and Terra Nullius

  • Touchstone Gallery 901 New York Avenue NW Washington D.C 20001 United States (map)

Join us in the Gallery to hear from artist Tom McMurray about his Lines in Country photography exhibition; part of a larger effort to protect the Kimberley and Pilbara region of NW Australia.

McMurray was a member of a team of photographers and filmmakers that documented the lives of five people and told their stories of protecting a way of life. Country to them means a sense of belonging and identity that is deeply spiritual and forms the basis for their belief system and connection to their ancestors.

The story of the documentary film can be seen at www.keepingcountry.com
