Description

The exhibition features a series titled The Incomplete History of the Millikapiti, which recounts the disastrous effect of the white culture upon the Aboriginal community, even when well-meaning. In the installation, After all the whites gave all the Tiwis glasses, the owls lost their power and became domestically violent, the Tiwi people, who are famous for their artwork, are represented by Hayes as stuffed animals. Disturbing and often violent scenes document the community’s loss of innocence related to the irrelevance of their former life in modern times and to the introduction of alcohol and sugar.
