clip 1, 3Clip description
Catherine (Sophie Lee) is telling her friend about her investments. She goes to get the pieces from out of the cupboard. The painting of the barramundi is now a merely skeleton of its former self. Somehow the rest of the painting has disappeared.
Curator’s notes
This clip emphasises the Catherine’s ignorance in regard to not only Indigenous art, but also the historical, cultural and artistic significance of the pieces. Mimis, for example, are incredibly sacred and powerful beings, and yet Catherine is absolutely oblivious to their Indigenous cultural significance.
