Inside Our July/August 2025 Issue

A detail of Yindjibarndi artist Wendy Hubert’s epic painting graces the cover of our July/August issue, which explores ways artists encourage deeper looking and listening. Hubert’s work features in It’s always been always at Fremantle Art Centre—which, as Rosamund Brennan writes, honours the enduring voices of Indigenous women artists.

Inside, Michelle Wang follows Sophie Penkethman-Young’s dives into the internet’s depths, Camilla Wagstaff speaks to Jennifer Mills about the 30-year evolution of Mills’ practice, and Monica Rani Rudhar tells Jo Higgins that costume jewellery can embody its own authenticity.

Giselle Au-Nhien Nguyen explains how Marcia Langton and co-curators responded to gaps in the University of Melbourne’s Indigenous collection, and Tyson Frigo discovers how Yolŋu power: the art of Yirrkala charts the ingenuity of one Indigenous community. Elsewhere, Editor-at-large Neha Kale presents The Long View, a new essay series inaugurated by Dee Jefferson, exploring relationships between art and the wider world.
