Gold Participant: Robert (Young Person - Griffith)
Big hART Gold is a project that focuses on the effects of the drought on rural and farming communities of Australia.
We go around to farms and interview the farmers about what life is like on the land when there is no water.
Our project stretches across the Murray-Darling basin.
We do weekly workshops in our office in Griffith with different artists from across Australia. This is the blog of the participants at our Griffith HQ.
Read all about our field trips, see the latest photos and videos from our workshops, from the perspective of the young people involved.
On our first trip to Boree Creek, Rosie told us the story of the hottest day she could remember on the farm. In the next Gold workshop, we decided to make this shadow animation inspired by that story. Tara showed us how to make the images and project them onto the wall, while B showed us how to experiment with making the sound scapes.
