Art in Place — Students respond
A
rt in Place was the first in a series of workshops for University of Sydney students to think and write about the campus artwork Spine by Bidjara, Ghungalu and Garingbal artist D Harding. Organised as a collaboration between Honi and The Power Institute, the workshops took place over Thursday and Friday last week, during which student participants were prompted to develop critical responses to the work and received collaborative feedback from University curators and lecturers of
Indigenous Studies. Students may recognise Spine 2 residing on Eastern Avenue, however two further elements of the work exist — Spine 1 (Universe) is located in the LEES building, and Spine 3 (Radiance) is located on the side of the Carslaw building. As a collective, Harding’s works represent a dialogue between old and new, Indigenous and colonial; a point of tension — read on to hear the voices of students in response.
