SILENCE PULLS THE TREATY CONVERSATION OUT FROM UNDER THE RUG, SLAMS IT BACK ON THE TABLE AND INVITES YOU TO MAKE IT A TALKING POINT!
Silence is about the space in between. The conversations not being heard and the responses that are muted. Through the beating of a drum, bodies thrash through frequencies to uncover what lies in the Silence.
There’s Silence between the stars as the Emu travels across the night sky. There’s Silence in the dancer’s energy when they hit the cut, the rupture between rhythms and movement where the spirit world can enter. It’s also the deafening Silence under white noise. The same questions echoed through generations.
“The soundtrack was electrifying and the performance so powerful and riveting, that I had to remind myself to breathe” – Audience member
We have marched across Country. We have had promises made and promises broken. In Silence we pull the unresolved conversations from under the rug and slam them back on the table. Because the conversation about a Treaty will never be silenced.
