Description
Guests of the Djiidjalalap venue will hear compositions by Tessa Darcey and Della Rae Morrison
With seven sites being utilised for this event, audiences will experience a series of bespoke seating tiers extending from Wadjemup (Rottnest Island) to Walyalup (Fremantle) and through to the Guildford area. Audiences will experience a series of specially commissioned sound works paying homage to the ancient stories of Whadjuk country and acknowledging the interruptions to this place caused by colonisation.
This new commission invites audiences to consider the Derbal Yerrigan as a source of life. To listen anew and to witness as one.
