FIRST LIGHTS – BUUNGBAA-MA-NDHU BY KIRLI SAUNDERS AND FREMANTLE BIENNALE
Award-winning Gundungurra-raised Gunai Writer and Artist, Kirli Saunders (OAM), energizes mugaru (cold winter) with her synchronous installation of language and light, Buungbaa-ma-ndhu meaning rise (as the sun), all of you.
Remnant of a bedtime story told around the campfire, Saunders’ poetic bi-lingual digital work rouses audiences to collaborate and create a powerful future together, ‘to rise, like light from the fire, mountain top…whirlwind, diamond python, black cockatoo.’
Conjured with welcome dance from local First Nations families and community, Ngununggula and Fremantle Biennale presents FIRST LIGHTS, a choreographed and responsive drone show.
HEADLINE MUSIC ACT: SHEBA WILLIAMS
Disco is the music that makes everyone dance, even if they can’t.
Sheba Williams has worked with the NRL, Red Bull, Versace, Optus, Google, Air New Zealand, The Sydney Opera House, SBS, Mumm and Bentley. Now she is here in the Highlands!
She is a one a kind performer and emcee who can really ‘bring the party” to any style of event in a number of incredibly fun, stylish and charismatic ways.
