On Saturday 16 August 2025 MAC yapang is celebrating their new exhibitions Billy Missi’n Wakain Thamai, Tricia Flanagan: LANDRELATIONS and Michèle Heibel: Conversations.
Billy Missi’n Wakain Thamai is a national touring exhibition presented by NorthSite Contemporary Arts in partnership with Torres Strait Regional Authority’s Gab Titui Cultural Centre (TSRA), and toured by Museums & Galleries QLD.
This profound exhibition honours the late Torres Strait Islander artist Billy Missi (1970-2012). It brings together over fifty of the artist’s most significant and iconic prints, including rare and never-before-exhibited monoprints, etchings, and linoprints from Djumbunji Fine Art Press and private collections.
Billy Missi’n Wakain Thamai is an exhibition developed by NorthSite Contemporary Arts (Gimuy/Cairns) and touring Australia in partnership with Gab Titui Cultural Centre/Torres Strait Regional Authority (Waiben/Thursday Island) and Museums & Galleries Queensland. This project has been assisted by the Australian Government’s Visions of Australia program.
