The Nothing

project description

‘The Nothing’ explores the artist’s own relationship with the people and locations of Kandos and Cementa over time, dating from the first festival in 2013. But ‘The Nothing’ also reacts to a pervasive feeling of undoing, as exemplified by writer Michael Ende in his book The Never-ending Story. As an ongoing series of catastrophic events impact the community, from fire to COVID, the community, like the wider world around it, struggles to adjust to this undoing, this growing emergence of the nothing.

ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF NGURRA

The City of the Blue Mountains is located within the Ngurra (Country) of the Dharug and Gundungurra peoples. MTNS MADE recognises that Dharug and Gundungurra Traditional Owners have a continuous and deep connection to their Country and that this is of great cultural significance to Aboriginal people, both locally and in the region. For Dharug and Gundungurra People, Ngurra takes in everything within the physical, cultural and spiritual landscape – landforms, waters, air, trees, rocks, plants, animals, foods, medicines, minerals, stories and special places. It includes cultural practice, kinship, knowledge, songs, stories and art, as well as spiritual beings, and people: past, present and future. Blue Mountains City Council pays respect to Elders past and present while recognising the strength, capacity and resilience of past and present Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in the Blue Mountains region.
