You are invited to a media briefing on ‘Shared Sky’. The ‘Shared Sky’ project brings together indigenous artists from South Africa and Australia, in a joint exhibition celebrating humanity's most ancient cultural wisdom, alongside one of the world's greatest scientific and engineering endeavours - the Square Kilometre Array radio telescope project.
Through this exhibition, these artists join together to share their stories about the sky and learn from each other in celebration of their differences and common ancestry.
