Where does my knowledge of this country come from? How does it affect my relationships? What does critiquing the power I give those stories uncover? How do I make meaning out of my being, knowing and doing here?

Christopher Orchard’s A Critical Practice of Place: Decolonisation & Reinhabitation displays seven years of thinking and making in response to how the artist and researcher’s relationships, within place, transform through time.
