Occupation Studies: ngayanhurra bayarral Birrarung (they tried to tame Birrarung) is a new multichannel audiovisual artwork by artist Tahlia Palmer (Yuwaalaraay / Gamilaraay and mixed European descent), developed in collaboration with Jasper Cohen-Hunter (Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung).
Through immersive sound and moving image, Palmer and Cohen-Hunter interrogate the colonial occupation and regulation of the Birrarung (Yarra River), revealing how non-First Peoples altered a living waterway that had sustained Wurundjeri people for countless generations.
