At PICA we recognise that we are situated within the unceded lands of the Whadjuk people of the Noongar Nation. We pay our respects and offer our gratitude to Elders past and present, and to those emerging leaders in the community. We acknowledge all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and the importance of their care and continued connection to culture, community and Country.

Always was, always will be.

Galleries are open today, 10am–5pm. Our exhibitions are always free.

Historically storytelling has been at the heart of our social life. Narrative has been used to teach, to remember and to inspire. Stories have been told and retold for generations forming the roots and basis from which an individual’s identity is constructed. Perth based artist Renae Coles aims to reignite the power of storytelling, delving into one of our most enduring modes of communication.
