In connection with Jill Orr’s current exhibition, this participatory workshop will be delivered as a way of sharing stories of the different ways of coming to Australia across generations, nations, and circumstances.
Artist Dagmara Gieysztor will teach the group a simple paper folding technique which will become part of a group installation exhibited in the gallery.
These paper boats serve as a metaphor but also a reflection of Australian colonial and migrant history acknowledging and paying respect to the traditional custodians of the land.
