Mudam.gi: Uramat Fire Drawings 2021
Since 2006, the ongoing APT drawing project series has connected children from communities across the Asia Pacific. For APT10 Kids, children belonging to the Uramat Clan, in Gualim (Papua New Guinea), and children from Noosa (Noosaville State School and Peregian Beach College) and Stanthorpe (Ballandean State School and Glen Aplin State School) (Australia), have created drawings that explore their diverse experiences with fire. These experiences range from storytelling around a campfire and the use of ceremonial fire in spiritual practice to the destructive power of a bushfire. Archived here, the drawings provide insight into the lives and thoughts of the different groups of children.
Commissioned for APT10 Kids with support from the Tim Fairfax Family Foundation.
