CONNECTION

CONNECTION - THE EXPERIENCE

The walk-through experience will see visitors explore the spiritual connections to land, water and sky through a vibrant and multisensory symphony of sound, light, colour, and aromas. Grande Experiences’ state-of-the-art technology will be used to create an interactive exhibition space enveloping visitors in large-scale, immersive projections and cinematic surround sound.

The artistic line-up featured in Connection represents the wonderful diversity of Australia’s First Nation peoples, showcasing work from traditional and contemporary artists across the country. This experience honours the vital contribution that First Nation artists make to Australia’s design, arts and cultural landscape.

Connection: Songlines from Australia’s First Peoples was conceived, created and produced by Grande Experiences. It was curated by the team at Grande Experiences along with Aboriginal arts specialist Adam Knight, Indigenous photographic artist Wayne Quilliam and supported by a curatorial advisory panel and leaders in the arts including the National Museum’s lead Indigenous curator and academic Margo Neale, producer, director and arts executive Rhoda Roberts AO and Aboriginal designer and film producer Alison Page.

The creation of Connection is supported through the Restart Investment to Sustain and Expand (RISE) Fund – an Australian Government initiative.
