Kim V. Goldsmith

Kim V. Goldsmith is a multimedia artist, writer and creative producer who grew up on a farm on Wayilwan Country in central North-West NSW. She is now based on Wiradjuri Country, just outside Dubbo on the Western Plains of New South Wales. Her interdisciplinary creative practice has encompassed community engagement, sound, video, installation, story-gathering, writing and public programming that takes a creative, process-driven approach to the challenging environmental issues faced by rural, regional and remote communities. Kim’s work in this area continues to evolve as she explores layers of nuance and complexity within the territories in which she works, seeking the hidden elements that make them vibrate.

Travelling to find home

The hip-aching, leg-cramping, sleep-deprived discomfort of 24 hours of flying from Sydney, Australia to London is certainly nothing compared to that undertaken by my Australian forebears—the convict, the free-woman, the Northern Irish and Irish farmer ...
