KINGSTON WEAVING

Kingston Weaving is a First Nations led, weaving, yarning and public art project by Boandik artists Sonya, Sarah and Suzy Smith in Kingston, South East, South Australia. The work explores the return of water in the area through the cultural representation of animal totems as temporary sculptural outcomes – interconnecting traditional weaving techniques, language and knowledge towards the creation of a large -scale mobile art installation of enduring cultural significance.

Kingston Weaving is a new work commissioned by OSCA as part of our Projects of the Everyday initiative.
