  • You Moved Where?! - Rika Hamaguchi
    Jul 17 2024

    Rika Hamaguchi, a descendant of the Yawuru, Bunaba, Bardi, and Jaru people in the Kimberley Region, discovered her passion for dance as a teen. Following her feet, she left Broome and was accepted into the Bangarra Dance Company, performing on the prestigious Sydney Opera House stage.

    Leaving Broome was challenging for Rika, who had to learn complex routines while managing homesickness. After thirteen years of dancing in Sydney and abroad, she felt a strong desire to return to the Kimberley, drawn by its calm energy, breathtaking beauty, spirituality, and family support.

  • You Moved Where?! - Caroline Rannersberger
    Jul 10 2024

    Visual Artist and Curator Caroline Rannersberger has lived a transient life, living in multiple cities across the globe.

    Through her art she explores perspective of place, capturing visceral reflections of landscapes. It’s perhaps no coincidence that she found herself moving to the remote Bruny Island - an Island off an Island off an Island. The step away from high-density cities was a natural step for Caroline, providing the ideal environment to deepen her work.

  • You Moved Where?! - Ellie, Dave & Violet
    Jul 3 2024

    Ever heard of a house having such pervasive powers? Well for Ellie, Dave and Violet, it was indeed a picture perfect house on the banks of the Snowy River that saw them picking up their life in Canberra to move to Dalgety.

    Like many who embark on a tree change, the transition was not without its challenges. The enthusiastic trio had to navigate issues with water supply, childcare, and their careers. Yet, every bit of effort has been worthwhile, as they now enjoy the serenity of their magical homestead, relaxing under the shade of the strawberry tree.
