The Mundaring Weir was constructed by colonial Australians as part of a scheme to transport water to settlers in the goldfields. The resulting lake is surrounded by a forest preserve that is a cohabitation of native and non-native plants and trees. Using a flash in pitch dark, I am also intruding on a landscape I don’t consciously belong to. The emitted white light paints a scene reflecting a contradictory and difficult relationship to the land as a white Australian artist, one that is manifestly different from the Beelu people who have been displaced, even replaced, by non-Indigenous Australians in the Hills.
