ANIMATIONS and installation arranged by Maddison Gibbs and Lisa Roberts
with material shared by Living Data contributors.

Our land itself contains the power to seed and grow Treaty - all we have to do is grasp and wield this powerful force, visually, scientifically, and musically. This display of the intricate, multilayered web of life and culture that sustains us all, grasps this power and charges its viewers with a communal responsibility to protect and care for country.
