Through
the extraordinary testimonies of aboriginal teenagers we become
witnesses to a world in which the interviewees are continually told
that they are surplus to requirements.
Black Sheep uses materials gleaned from an arts project I was involved
with involving young people in and around the notorious Don Dale
Juvenile Detention Centre situated in Darwin, Australia. The project
was run by Big hArt Inc a non-profit arts organisation that
collaborates with communities, groups and individuals to produce art
with people experiencing the effects of marginalisation in rural,
regional and remote areas of Australia. Photographer Randy Larcombe and
I collected image and sound material for the project. This material has
also been used to produce a multimedia theatre work, a radiophonic
composition and sound/image installation work.
Black Sheep video edited and produced by Robert Iolini.
