Beneath Roads

"Freedom, heartache and exploitation – what does the road on screen tell us about the Australian Identity?"

Beneath Roads is a three-channel work that reveals the Indigenous experience and innovation underlying our national identity. By juxtaposing archival government films, iconic Australian road movies and newly captured footage of the Aboriginal motorcycle club, The Southern Warriors, Beneath Roads reinserts First Peoples knowledge legacies and representation into our cinematic canon, recontextualising our relationship to history, culture and Country.
