Sea of Hands
Sea of Hands
In 1997 over 300,000 Australians signed their names on one of 120,000 plastic hands that make up the Sea of Hands.
The Sea of Hands was created as a powerful, physical representation of the Citizen's Statement on Native Title.
The Citizen's Statement was a petition circulated by ANTaR to mobilise non-Indigenous support for native title and reconciliation, at a time when native title rights were under serious threat from the Howard Government's proposed changes to the Native Title Act 1993.
