Swinging branches & rocks build up a visible residue

For Tracing inscriptions 2020/22, a purpose-crafted plotter printer is programmed by Robert Andrew to trace an undisclosed Yawuru text in Latin script, activating strings stretching over viewers’ heads that hook up

Over the system of the exhibition, swinging burnt branches and ochre-coated rocks — suspended by strings controlled by the plotter — slowly but surely establish up noticeable residue on the wall. The charcoal and ochre efficiently produce State on to the partitions, reminding viewers that they stand on Indigenous land. This undermines the trope that a gallery’s white partitions generate a house wherever artworks can be seen without having external reference factors.
