Bilya Bidi - Crossings

A lasting legacy to the cultural and social impact left by the Fremantle Biennale, the book is an illustrated monograph that speaks to the theme of CROSSING 21.

Contextualising Walyalup’s (Fremantle’s) history and the subsequent layering of colonial and contemporary narratives, the book will hold a collection of essays, reflections, poem and correspondences, illustrated by the works of contemporary artists, writers, community leaders and Whadjuk Noongar Traditional Owners.

Crossings Bilya Bidi is itself a love letter, a site-responsive and a heartfelt attempt to speak back to place.
