Bunjil Place is excited to present a variety of signature events inspired by John Young: Diaspora, Psyche that is currently exhibiting until Sunday 12 September, 2021. The survey exhibition presents an exploration of transculturalism, examining historic expressions of cross-cultural ethics, material and cultural exchange, and the effects of diasporic experience on the psyche.
Taking place on Saturday 14 August, enjoy a day out at Bunjil Place to explore the art and ideas of Diaspora, Psyche through dance, discussion, and more.
Home(s) is a cross-cultural and cross-genre dance project that brings together four dance artists from a diverse range of backgrounds Jennifer Ma, Nak Assa, Kaitlin Malone, and David Leupolu. Through a mix of contemporary dance, street dance and experimental music backgrounds, the works unravel the dancers’ own cultural experiences and investigate their sense of belonging at the crossroads of diverse cultural influences. Featuring music composed by Bluey Mooney and lights designed by Adelaide Harney, tickets are $8-$10 + BF which includes light refreshments, and the performance is set for 2.00pm in the Bunjil Place Studio.

With over 10 years’ experience in choreography and freestyle, Nak has travelled internationally to Singapore, Japan, Vietnam and the US to attend dance camps, competitions and private trainings with world-class street dancers to refine his craft.
