KALEIDOSCOPE

RHSV Gallery Downstairs 239 A'Beckett St, Melbourne

This exhibition is biography imagined through the lens of a Kaleidoscope. The viewer is offered fragments of the lives represented here. There is no linear narrative. Each time the kaleidoscope turns, a different story emerges. There are repeating patterns but different emphases and new ways of seeing, new reflections, new refractions. No one story dominates and one story does not fit all.

Lecture – Working Lives: Stories from the Immigration Museum’s Collection

Melbourne Museum 11 Nicholson St, Carlton

Working life stories from the past and present told through the Immigration Museum’s diverse collections. Work remains a cornerstone of identity for many of us. Yet the ways we think about work continues to evolve.  Work can shape and share ideas of community, gender, memory, creativity, sexuality, activism, ethnicity, and our sense of individual and collective value. Work also acts as a thread that connects us to people, places, and other times.
