This Must Be the Place connected a series of utopian visions as defined by the communities situated in Hopetoun/Ravensthorpe in remote Western Australia. Sarah’s project considered the idea of utopia as a matter of perspective – a continuously disappearing horizon between the present and the future. Conducted through a series of walking interviews, Rodigari looked to address how rural utopian ideals of sustainability (social, economic, cultural, historical, environmental) inform the making of place, in light of climate change and within our history of colonial-settler Australia.
At the end of her six weeks, Sarah presented a humorous, poetic and insightful performance script, Hearsay, back to the community, based on the interviews and conversations she’d undertaken. The performance connected past narratives with speculative futures against present realities of mining, farming, drought, and flood.
