Brenda L. Croft‘s exhibition Naabami (thou shall / will see): Barangaroo (army of me) is now open to the public in the Quentin Bryce Gallery, Embassy of Australia in Washington, DC, USA. Naabami (thou will/shall see): Barangaroo (army of me) features large-scale photomedia portraits of contemporary First Nations women and girls and honours Barangaroo, the Cammeraygal Warrior woman who acts as a constant ancestral guide for the women and girls represented in this major installation.

Brenda L. Croft is also a finalist in the National Photographic Portrait Prize. Entering its 17th year, the National Photographic Portrait Prize is one of the Gallery’s most popular annual events. The prize provides a powerful visual record of the year that was – a celebration of identity, both collective and individual.

In addition, Brenda L. Croft features in the latest Portrait magazine in a recent edition of Art Guide. Her work is also showing in the exhibition Reflecting Lenses: Twenty Years of Photography at the Gorman Museum in California, USA. The exhibition presents highlights from the Gorman Museum of Native American Art collection by more than two dozen Indigenous artists from North America, Aotearoa, and Australia. The exhibition highlights self-representation and the works are accompanied by text by the artists featured. Read more about the exhibition in The Reporter here.
