It highlights the impact the British colonisation had on Indigenous people, culture, language and land over the past 180+ years in South Australia. This series of Daguerreotypes honours the contemporary Kaurna community revival of Kaurna culture and language. Helping to re-writes the language back into the landscape of Kaurna Yarta.
These Daguerreotype photographs highlight important places for Kaurna people in the Kaurna Nation of the Adelaide region, South Australia.
