Disaster Narratives, 2004
This large installation was made for the Perth International arts Festival held at the Perth Institute of Contemporary Arts in 2004. The work comprises of a large 'billboard' style print, video projection, conch shell indigenous to the area and a still video (screen) embedded into the wall. This work pulls together a number of landscapes that explore buried narratives and histories including Mao Tse Tung's underground tunnels in Beijing, Rubble Hill in Berlin and Rottnest Island, former Indigenous prison in Western Australia.
An accompanying catalogue with essay by Dr Ian McLean is available from PICA.
