‘Cede’
Cede is a visual investigation of the people, places, and historical uses and misuses of the Yarra River. The work concentrates on how users of the river have left their trace on it, how we interact with it and how that interaction has affected the river visually. The word Cede reflects feelings of a forgotten place, which is how I feel when hiking the river. The river is the backyard for many Melbournian’s, and I myself am looking for my connection to this place and where I fit into its mysteries and history.
