FUMA acknowledges the Kaurna people as the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we stand. We pay our respects to Kaurna Elders past and present and extend this respect to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples from all nations of Australia. We celebrate the cultures, languages and creative practices that have flourished here for more than 60,000 years — and continue to shape this place today.
FUMA Gallery will be closed for deinstall from 21 September and will reopen to the public on Tuesday 6 October with Kait James: Red Flags.
UPCOMING EXHIBITION
6 October – 27 November 2026
Kait James: Red Flags is Wadawurrung artist Kait James’ most ambitious solo exhibition to date. Combining autobiography, incisive analysis and wry humour, James’ practice reveals a deep reverence for her culture alongside a glimpse into a shared ‘Australian’ First Nations experience.
Kait James: Red Flags is a Warrnambool Art Gallery exhibition, curated by Aaron Bradbrook and touring nationally with NETS Victoria.
