Black Lives Matter: Black Deaths in Custody Since 1991

Two inmates lie dead on the Aboriginal flag. Text reads: 'Black Lives Matter. Black deaths in custody since 1991' with '450+' inside the centre yellow circle on the flag.

2021 marked the 30th anniversary of the report of the Royal Commission into Aboriginal Deaths in Custody. Bereaved communities have criticised the limited implementation of the Royal Commission’s recommendations. Eastwood’s strong imagery captures this sentiment.
