In 1994, Boomalli Aboriginal Artist Co-operative received a letter proposing an exhibition during that years’ Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras event. The aim was to showcase images and works from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander artist who identify as gay, lesbian, bisexual, trans or Queer. The exhibition was also an opportunity to awareness of the issues being faced by that community.

It’s been thirty years since Looking Good opened at Boomalli, featuring the work of established an emerging Queer Black artists. Please note: This story contains the names of people who have died.
