Kabi Kabi Connections

Kabi Kabi Connections

Kabi Kabi Connections is the union between time immemorial and the ephemeral, where sacred ways of knowing and being meet new technologies and the natural environment.

Curated by knowledge keeper and artist, Helena Gulash and interdisciplinary artist James Muller, this immersive and meditative work illuminates the waters of the Maroochy River with the work of Traditional Custodians and visual arts of the Kabi Kabi peoples.

Experience this beautiful projection work most evenings in front of the Wonderland Spiegeltent.
