canvas a dark sideshow has found its way into a womb of Colonial privilege Star-spangled banners exert unease Ms Ready emphatically reclaims this sacred space her legs mirroring the strength of its marble columns an exotic Koori knockout, she harnesses the spirits stolen from those caged in the rusty menagerie over which she towers These Aboriginal faces reflect historical human zoos sadly mirrored today in jails countrywide unnatural spectacles without safety nets spell-binding juggling acts are needed to sidestep those circuses as the magicians who manipulate such entertainments continue to shine ticket prices skyrocket as risks and casualties increase Mr Ready firmly stands his ground not just a boxing-tent performer his fists help him to protect and survive—day in, day out tattoos share daredevil stories and legacies scars of resilience just like tightrope walkers, who demand respect Knife dodging acts, gun shooting cowboys and bareback riders fires rage with spectacular damage evidence of a nation with holes in buckets which leak more then water “There's a gaping hole in this bucket, dear Liza, how on earth can you fix it dear Henry, dear Henry?” The clowns enter and the show goes on… A Dickensian Country Show A dark side of the circus behind the lights and make-up of the show is the hard reality of artists and show-people who are glued together with blood, sweat and tears searching for hope for a home-away-from-home A tribe of misfits, outsiders, freaks and no-fits the throw-aways, the shunned, the rejected and the shamed gathering and nurturing each other with a sense of belonging entertaining and warming the hearts of those who abandoned them healing the cruel while enforcing their own existence There are those who love to watch horror movies and car accidents unfold excited by the energy and horrifying misfortunes the thrill of potential death waiting for the acrobat to loose her footing the fat man to explode they feel beautiful as they cringe at the bearded lady the snake-man and any other human with unusual differences As a source of inspiration they please the crowds delivering soul-food to the outwardly whole arriving in the shadows to embrace theirs the boxing tent is raised mobs punch the air as they watch black fellas bruise and knock each other across the canvas They watch their dreams unfold as carnies scratch to feed themselves shovelling popcorn and dressed in their Sunday best making memories and dancing with deep desires sad clowns tie the truths together as they mock themselves teasing them with playful tomfoolery magicians and trained athletes in hand-made costumes which sparkle thousands of lights into their hearts and eyes… INSTALLATION VIEW, 22ND BIENNALE OF SYDNEY, NIRIN

number of years, Karla Dickens amassed what she classifies as “the memories, whispers and materials” from which her A Dickensian Circus and A Dickensian Country Show were formed. She used this strange assortment of intangible and substantial ingredients to distil what she calls “an essence of the lives, tales and polarities of Aboriginal circus performers from the past”. For more than a year, Dickens transformed countless discarded everyday items into multifaceted memorials for bygone sideshow, circus and boxing-tent performers of Indigenous descent. This mix of sculptural and pictorial offerings peeks behind the glittering facades of “the show”, to unearth underlying narratives of tender and melancholy co-existence among performers and harrowing interactions with audiences. Crafted from vintage fabrics and assorted bric-a-brac, these delirious and unsettling collages and constructions embrace and pay homage to the quaint, handmade glamour and razzle-dazzle of travelling show people from earlier times. Poking fun and using jester-like ridicule, they also contemplate the human and animal distress which inhabits the shadows of such spectacles. Karla’s starting point for this project was Con Colleano, a world famous part- Aboriginal tightrope walker known as "The Wizard of the Wire" and "The Toreador of the Wire", who emanated from Karla’s home town Lismore, NSW.

  • 19 Language Revitalisation: Community and School Programs Working Together
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Sydney eScholarship 19 Language revitalisation: community and school programs working together Diane McNaboe1 and Susan Poetsch2 Abstract Since it was published in 2003 the New South Wales Aboriginal Languages K– 10 Syllabus has led to a substantial increase in the number of school programs operating in the state. It has supported the quality of those programs, and the status and recognition given to Aboriginal languages and cultures in the curriculum. School programs also complement community initiatives to revitalise, strengthen and share Aboriginal languages in New South Wales. As linguistic and cultural knowledge increases among adult community members, school programs provide a channel for them to continue to develop their own skills and knowledge and to pass on this heritage. This paper takes Wiradjuri as an example of language revitalisation, and describes achievements in adult language learning and the process of developing a school program with strong input from community. A brief history of Wiradjuri language revitalisation Wiradjuri is one of the central inland New South Wales (NSW) languages (Wafer & Lissarrague 2008, pp. 215–25). In recent decades various language teams have investigated and analysed archival sources for Wiradjuri and collected information from both written and oral sources (Büchli 2006, pp. 58–60). These teams include Grant and Rudder (2001a, b, c, d; 2005), Hosking and McNicol (1993), McNicol and Hosking (1994) and Donaldson (1984), as well as Christopher Kirkbright, George Fisher and Cheryl Riley, who have been working with Wiradjuri people in and near Sydney.

With no known surviving oral tradition for how and who would make the fish -hooks and use them in this area, the historical and archaeological records become more important. What do we know? Shell fish -hooks were observed and reported on by a number of people from the First Fleet. They mention being made and used by local women. “Considering the quickness with which they are finished, the excellence of the work, if it be inspected, is admirable”, Watkin Tench said on witnessing Barangaroo making one on the north shore. First Fleet painting of fish -hook (T. Watling) The manufacturing process involved the use of a strong shell. So far the only archaeological evidence is from the Turbo species. Pointed stone files were used to create the shape and then file down the edges to the recognisable form. Use -wear analysis on files has confirmed that they were used on shell as well as wood, bone and plant material.

  • Traditional Wiradjuri Culture
    Traditional Wiradjuri Culture By Paul greenwood I would like to acknowledge the Wiradjuir Elders, past and present, and thank those who have assisted with the writing of this book. A basic resource for schools made possible by the assistance of many people. Though the book is intended to provide information on Wiradjuri culture much of the information is generic to Aboriginal culture. Some sections may contain information or pictures from outside the Wiradjuri Nation. Traditional Wiradjuri Culture Wiradjuri Country There were many thousands of people who spoke the Wiradjuri language, making it the largest nation in NSW. The Wiradjuri people occupied a large part of central NSW. The southern border was the Murray River from Albury upstream towards Tumbarumba area. From here the border went north along the edges of the mountains, past Tumut and Gundagai to Lithgow. The territory continued up to Dubbo, then west across the plains to the Willandra creek near Mossgiel. The Booligal swamps are near the western border and down to Hay. From Hay the territory extended across the Riverina plains passing the Jerilderie area to Albury. Wiradjuri lands were known as the land of three rivers; Murrumbidgee (Known by its traditional Wiradjuri name) Gulari (Lachlan) Womboy (Macquarie) Note: The Murrumbidgee is the only river to still be known as its Aboriginal name The exact border is not known and some of the territories overlapped with neighbouring groups. Places like Lake Urana were probably a shared resource as was the Murray River. The territory covers hills in the east, river floodplains, grasslands and mallee country in the west.

From an Indigenous and Wiradjuri perspective the research follows a journey of exploration into maintaining and strengthening ethical research practices based on traditional value systems.
