This interactive exhibition features hundreds of objects\, photographs\, artworks and films from the Yarrila Arts and Museum collection. A key highlight of Yaamanga (around here) is the short film\, Daalga Nginundi Wajaarr (Sing Your Country)\, which is informed by Yuludarla’s (Gumbaynggirr Creator) journey from north to south exploring miirlarl (sacred places)\, culture and history through song and cinema. The piece is a celebration of language and its revival and is an invitation for all people to learn the story of this place. It explores untold histories of Country; its triumphs and its sorrow and the dialogue Gumbaynggirr people have every day with her.Daalga Nginundi Wajaarr (Sing Your Country) was created by Alison Page and Nik Lachajczak of ZAKPAGE. The score is a reworking of a medley of traditional songs by Gumbaynggirr artist\, Birrugan Dunn-Velasco\, with the inclusion of post-modern instrumentation and sounds from Country.This artwork is dedicated to the Gumbaynggirr people; it is their ancestral lands upon which we live and work; they who are so generous with their cultural knowledge and lore in the making of this film. \n\n\n\nA still image captured from Daalga Nginundi Wajaarr Sing Your Country\n\n\n\n\n\nFind out more about Daalga Nginundi Wajarr Sing your Country URL:https://www.yarrilaartsandmuseum.com.au/events/yaamanga-around-here CATEGORIES:Exhibition ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.yarrilaartsandmuseum.com.au/content/uploads/2023/03/dsc07522-scaled.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Australia/Sydney:20260328T100000 DTEND;TZID=Australia/Sydney:20260719T160000 DTSTAMP:20260610T211113 CREATED:20260105T222029Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260206T012555Z UID:10000696-1774692000-1784476800@www.yarrilaartsandmuseum.com.au SUMMARY:RELICS A New World Rises DESCRIPTION:Vintage objects meet miniature LEGO® brick worlds in RELICS: A New World Rises\, an extraordinary exhibition created by LEGO® Masters winners. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n Tickets on sale!\n \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe year is 2130.

Together\, they form a liminal “third space\,” a threshold where image and mark\, index and act\, converge to reveal what is not immediately visible. In this in-between realm\, the invisible histories of the body—its stored sensations\, memories and energies—are made perceptible\, emerging through the layering and interaction of forms.
