About this event
Re-calling the Marrambidya through sound, touch, and vision. Hopeful Disruptions Collective – Rochelle Summerfield, Tracy Pateman and Will Rodgers explore sonic, haptic and visual representations of some impacts European colonisation has had on the Marrambidya (Murrumbidgee River), from the mountains to the floodplain.
Curated soundscapes explore the deliberate destruction of the swan sanctuaries, the altered rise and fall of River water levels, and the environmental sounds of the living floodplain.
Under the gaze of Dhundhu (the Black Swan), wood and metal works invite people to viscerally experience the calcification and restrictive pressure from the crushing of the swan eggs and damming of the River and her tributaries.
Moving through different scales of time, large portraits of ancient trees, drawings of seasonal grasses, and ephemeral works hold embodied traces of a fragile, precious yet resilient living breath persisting across the altered floodplain of the Marrambidya.
