鈥婲orth Terrace: Worlds in relief
As the city鈥檚 cultural boulevard, North Terrace is emblematic of Tarntanya/Adelaide鈥檚 founding on Kaurna Yarta and the conduct of colonial relations today. In this suite of new works, curated by Jasmin Stephens, artists from South Australia, New South Wales and Singapore respond to the city鈥檚 environs and the world views that they convey. The exhibition draws upon Narungga poet/activist Natalie Harkin鈥檚 text Cultural Precinct, written in 2014. Harkin鈥檚 refrain 鈥hese limestone walls鈥� haunts this exhibition in which the artists cast a critical eye over North Terrace鈥檚 familiar and lesser-known aspects. Invoking histories of sculpture, moving image and design, the exhibition draws on the collection of the University of South Australia Architecture Museum.
