BEARING WITNESS

ANNELIES JAHN & JANE BURTON TAYLOR

Bearing Witness quotes Paul Keating’s 1992 Redfern speech. Written with Don Watson 30 years ago, the speech recognised the significant damage done to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples by colonisation. The Rocks/Tallowoladah is ground zero of First Contact. In this short quote from the speech, amplified as a neon light, the artists have created a personal expression of the hope for unity in the truth-telling that is happening now and is still to come. They, like us, are Bearing Witness.

December 7 – January 9
