JUDY WATSON

Judy Watson’s Aboriginal matrilineal family are from Waanyi country in north-west Queensland.

She co-represented Australia in the 1997 Venice Biennale, was awarded the Moët & Chandon Fellowship in 1995, the National Gallery of Victoria’s Clemenger Award in 2006 and, in the same year, the Works on Paper Award at the 23rd National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Award.

In 2011 her exhibition waterline was exhibited at the Embassy of Australia, Washington, DC. In 2012 she exhibited in the Sydney Biennale and in 2015 was the recipient of the Australia Council Visual Arts Award. Watson’s process lies in revealing hidden stories within Country, working from site and memory, revealing Indigenous histories, following lines of emotional and physical topography that centre on particular places and moments in time.

Watson has been invited to create new work for the North Gallery, where she will respond to the Museum’s situation in the Yarra Valley.
