‘Scintilla’ Art Exhibition

Scintilla was an exhibition that celebrated the culmination of the 2023 Digi Youth Arts fine art mentorship program. The exhibition presented a collection of young urban indigenous voices exploring contemporary issues interwoven with cultural practice. The term scintilla refers to the figurative sense of a ‘spark’, the presence of something barely perceivable to the eye. A presence that clearly entwines the practices of both our mentors and mentees, the thing that drives us as artists to articulate complex ideas and subconscious understandings. This scintilla was formed of cultural heritage, unique lived experiences and shared hopes for the future. A future that we may one day ignite by sharing the responsibility of nurturing each other's sparks.

Artworks by Kuta Kina, Amina Lawton, Marcus Waters and Emma Randall.
