The palawa/pakana nation is in our hearts
We embrace the wisdom,
The spirit,
And culture,
The land,
The water,
The sky
Luke John Campbell
If we don’t look, we can’t see, and if we can’t see, we can’t know, so how can we understand?
Dedicated to reflecting the diverse world we live in, The STARE celebrates difference, equity and diversity. Step into the shadows of ourselves, witness what is hidden in darkness, and in peaking behind the curtain you might find something that surprises you. SEE artists have curated portraits that reflect their individuality and creative practice. They have interrogated where there is darkness and what this means to them. Explore the rich diversity of human expression as you walk through the Tasmanian Museum and Art Galleries 'Bondstore'.
Second Echo Ensemble [SEE] is a contemporary Arts Organisation based in nipaluna/Hobart, Tasmania. We work to challenge assumptions, shake up stereotypes and give voice to untold stories. We passionately believe that everyone, everywhere, has the right to thrive and the right to be heard. Formed in 2005 the company has created and toured work in Tasmania, Australia and internationally, and is a leading creative force in the development of a narrative that speaks to the rich diversity of Tasmania.

Take a breath into your body with us.
