Women on the Line

The Language of Distance


Listen Later

On Women on the Line we look into the language of distance. How do we navigate both visible and invisible borders? Where is home and who gets to feel at home? We chat with artist and curator Talia Smith about her upcoming exhibition,I Can See for Miles, held at the Centre for Contemporary Photography. Later in the show, we hear from artist Lana Nguyen who walks across invisible borders everyday. She chats with us about her essay Mapping the Supply’s Chain featured on Chart Collective. Music from this week's show is Lipstick Stains and Baybee by Jay Som. BiosTalia Smith is an artist and curator from New Zealand and now based in Sydney Australia. She is of Samoan, Cook Island and New Zealand European heritage. Her curatorial practice engages with photographic and time based mediums in order to examine notions of time, memory and ruin.Lana Nguyen is an artist whose practice currently centres on exploring the idea of home in Australia. Coming from a half-Vietnamese refugee, half colonial-Australian background – she is interested in looking at the contestations in the history of this land, its borders and its margins. She is interested in interdisciplinary approaches between art and activism; the ways we can create, reflect and deepen community through the arts. Recent projects she’s worked on include La Nonna, a theatre piece exploring the intersection of queer and immigrant identity as part of the 2018 Midsumma Festival and Planning Atlantis, an independent site-specific performance exploring the dream of the Docklands.
