Stories of Water and Earth features Yuwaalaraay woman Nardi Simpson alongside a quartet of Ensemble Offspring’s genre bending instrumentalists, weaving together instrumental chamber music, long term collaboration, dreaming stories and reimagined times.
This hour-long showfeatures a performance of Freshwater Woman by Nardi Simpson, where she shares Yuwaalaraay women’s creative and cultural practice through song and interactive moments. To complement and give context to this 40-minute work, a handful of deadly works from the last 10 years of Ngarra-Burria: First Peoples Composers will speak to country and culture.
Nexus Arts acknowledges the Kaurna people as the owners of the land where we live, learn, and work. We respect their culture and elders and acknowledge their sovereignty was never ceded. We recognise that visual arts, music and storytelling have been central to Aboriginal cultures for over 70,000 years. We work to support this lineage.
