Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander viewers are warned that the video may contain images of deceased persons.
Badu Gili: Story Keepers illuminates the eastern Bennelong sails with a dynamic projection displaying the works of celebrated First Nations artist Mervyn Street, and Kinngaimmiut Inuk artist Ningiukulu Teevee.
Mervyn's distinctive artistic practice draws upon his lifetime as a stockman in the Kimberley and advocacy of cultural preservation through language and living on Country. While Ningiukulu creates visual art rooted in Inuit myths and legends, keeping traditional stories alive while offering her unique perspective on Inuit culture.
An important pillar of the Opera House’s year-round First Nations program, Badu Gili is an essential Sydney cultural experience for both visitors and the local community that aims to foster and celebrate a shared sense of belonging for all Australians.
Badu Gili is presented in collaboration with the Biennale of Sydney and the Fondation Cartier pour l’art contemporain
