Fragile and Forever: Ceramics from the Queensland Museum Collection

Ubiquitous yet enduring, aesthetically appealing in their essence and artistry, ceramics are often at the heart of our rituals and ceremonies. Explore Queensland Museum ceramics, from the artistic to the more practical, many on display for the very first time in this free exhibition. From pottery fragments thousands of years old, made by the Jōmon people of Japan to contemporary artworks from celebrated First Nations artists, the exhibition showcases ceramics that are truly fragile and forever. Aboriginal, Torres Strait Islander and Australian South Sea Islander visitors are advised that this display contains artworks by, and accounts of, people who have passed away.
