What Binds Me to This Land

Synopsis

A conversation about land, territories, language, and the multivalent possibilities of all that is natural and imagined, 'What Binds Me to This Land' brings together a diverse group of international artists that possess a distinct desire to recreate visual tableaus that allude to their personal and historico-political encounters with the natural world. Operating within systems of structured power, memory and legacies, these precepts often inform their modes of artmaking and storytelling. Through embedded stories of migration, colonisation, extraction and spirituality, these artists shape and reclaim narratives from landscapes of their collective past, present and future.
