Deakin Ph.D. Candidate, creative producer, and artist Tania Blackwell situated in the dining room of the Altona Homestead, once a month, to research, record, and create artifacts for a table installation. The work aims to extract memories by exploring matter, place, and history.

Drawing on materials in the Homestead, the textures and sounds, along with conversations, the artist will stitch words into the table setting as a method of nostalgic and provocative storytelling.

Exploring deep layers of time, from the walls to the carpet through to the floorboards, the soil beneath, and everything in between.
