FACTIVISMMoreland Summer Show 2016

FACTIVISM: News, information and opinion are never far out of reach. We are saturated with headlines, images, slogans, sound bites and signs but often lack facts. Facts are powerful, yet they can be cherry-picked and spun. How are facts verified? How do we form our view? What banner should we flock to? What is the right cause? How do we put the truth to work?

Every encounter is a negotiation – a space composed of layers, conflicts, intersections and interstices. No matter what your take is, no matter how many others concur, there is always a view that is contrary to your own.

What was taken and what was given | Kelvin Skewes

Nauru hosts three regional processing centres, part of Australia’s revamped ‘Pacific Solution’. They house about 500 asylum seekers. The vast majority of Nauru’s tiny 21 square kilometre land area has been mined out, and Nauru now relies on aid and patronage from other countries. This exhibition contemplates twentieth century colonialism and twenty-first century paternalism.
