Join us for the opening of the Limen 2.0 exhibition
Opening Address by Senator Dorinda Cox
Yarning with Stolen Generations Survivors Timothy Flowers, Gail Jamieson and Stephanie Mippy
Limen 2.0 - 'At the fence' recreates few charged moments from the institutionalisation at 3 mission sites – Mogumber/Moore River, Carrolup/Marribank and Wandering mission. We cross the fence to enter into a shared space to engage with the Survivors, to hear their story at the place they spent their years of childhood feeling lost, isolated, traumatised and stolen.
Our experience of Limen - 'At the fence' will encourage empathy and provides an alternative view of the Stolen Generation experience that has been distorted, filtered and transformed through a colonial lens. 'At the fence' holds a hope that Indigenous and non-Indigenous people of Australia will hold hands and cross over the fence.
Doors open at 5.45 pm for 6.00 pm start.
Light refreshments available.
