Artist Michaela Gleave highlights the complexity of colonial history and the ambivalence of representing identity in her new work 'Under One Sun'.
Using Wikipedia’s open-source listing of Indigenous massacres in Australia, Michaela Gleave highlights the lack of exhaustive and verified historical data associated with this history. Her dramatically zoomed out installation documents the positions of the planets between 1789 and 1928, when 63 massacres of Indigenous peoples took place.
