Songlines: Tracking the Seven Sisters is a landmark, Aboriginal-led exhibition that takes visitors on an immersive journey along the epic Seven Sisters Dreaming tracks, through art, storytelling, and innovative multimedia. Co-created with Indigenous communities and representing the work of more than 100 artists, the exhibition spans over 300 paintings, objects, and experiences – each a portal into the deserts of the Martu, Ngaanyatjarra, and Anangu Pitjantjatjara Yankunytjatjara peoples.

E2 worked closely with the National Museum of Australia and Indigenous Elders to design a narrative-driven environment where artworks, landscapes, and technologies converge to bring the stories to life as if told directly by the custodians themselves. Carefully crafted vistas, surprise encounters, and enveloping sound and light experiences guide visitors through a journey that balances cutting-edge digital media with handcrafted works – from ceramics and spinifex figures to paintings and typography.

First staged in Canberra in 2017–18 to critical acclaim and nearly 100,000 visitors, Songlines has since travelled internationally to Paris, Berlin, and Finland, with Delhi and Beijing to follow. Hailed as “a bold and beautiful exhibition where the Indigenous voice is loud and clearly articulated” (Canberra Times), Songlines sets a new benchmark in presenting Aboriginal art and storytelling to the world.
