NONE LIVING KNOWS
Arc One Gallery, Melbourne, 31 May - 8 July, 2017
During the late nineteenth century, Chinese immigrants and miners walked from Darwin through the vast Northern Territory to Croydon, and as far as Cairns on Queensland's east coast, in search of gold. Intermittent and often alone, the walkers trailed a perilous and unmapped two thousand kilometres that resulted in many deaths. 'None Living Knows' - words drawn from a W.B Yeats poem- echo this forgotten narrative.
