PRESENTED BY THE SUBSTATION, LIQUID ARCHITECTURE AND YIRRAMBOI

TENYA, meaning ‘Us’ in Anaiwan, interweaves living stories on Anaiwan Country through walking and deep listening. This multi-layered sound and visual installation extends Gabi Briggs’ artistic exploration of Anaiwan knowledge systems, intergenerational dialogue and the profound relationship between identity and place. Echoing the sentiment: ‘I am located, therefore I am’.

Gabi Briggs is the first recipient of The Substation x Liquid Architecture's First Nations Experimental Sound Commission.
