Archives are Hot!: Monuments Tour

Join Palawa man and artist researcher Dominic White (Trawlwoolway) and white settler artist researcher Amy Spiers on a tour of some of the monuments and public artworks around RMIT campus that will draw on both their research-based socially engaged, performative art practices.

Grounded in their different positionalities and mutual interest in the histories archived on our streets through commemorative public art, together they will prompt attendees to consider the shared pasts and embodied memories that are, and are not, evoked by the artworks in the city's (stolen) public spaces.

This event is a collaboration between Next Wave and CAST for Archives are Hot! Artists in the Archive – a two-day program of workshops, talks and activations.

Archives are Hot! Artists in the Archive is supported by City of Melbourne.
