The tour was built around planning and adaptation projects being undertaken by the Griffith Climate Change Response Program, and was initiated in partnership with the Secretariat of the Pacific Regional Environment Programme and the University of the South Pacific. Griffith Review Published April 5, 2019 Things we want to know but forget to ask Stories about the painted past and the precarious future In early 2018, on a hot, humid summer’s day, when even the birds were resting in the shade, a group of writers gathered beneath the ceiling fans of a university seminar room to devise a project that engaged with the idea of living in a precarious world. As we all lived in the Illawarra region, on the south coast of New South Wales, we decided to respond to artworks held in the Wollongong Art Gallery Collection. A few weeks later, the gallery’s professional officer Vivian Vidulich and curator Louise Brand led us through the bowels of the gallery. They pulled out wire racks full of paintings and lifted dust covers from sculptures. And we writers sat with the artworks, taking notes, talking, photographing. We each chose one piece that activated something within us, and went away to write, coming together again over a series of sessions to read and talk about the works and responses to them. Diverse pieces of fiction, non-fiction and poetry evolved from this process: works interested in the land and waterways of the Illawarra and elsewhere; in the relationship between humans and other species; in wind, weather and waste; in death, birth, regeneration and refuge; and in the changing nature of life on this planet.
