We are so very excited to be a part of Overflow 💧

Overflow is a First Nations-led exhibition grounded in the living principles of Water Country. Overflow shares enduring practices that extend care to saltwater and freshwater systems.

It demonstrates Aboriginal knowledge as an active system of care, inviting an expanded understanding of custodianship. Spanning saltwater and freshwater systems, these practices encompass endangered species protection, flood mitigation, sustainable and commercial fishing, water monitoring, wellbeing, language revitalisation and cultural water rights.

These stories are brought to life by the cinematic lens of acclaimed filmmaker and Kamilaroi man Ivan Sen.

Designed with Country by Tyrrell Studio, Overflow provides a new ground plane, a place to step into water. Through the installation, water becomes more than subject matter: it is presence, memory, kin and a force that carries stories across generations. An act of truth-telling, Overflow’s undulating platform bridges the past and present conditions of Parramatta’s floodplain, reflecting on the power of water and how it has shaped the land beneath us over millennia.

Can you spot some familiar faces?

Overflow, a new exhibition bringing together 7 First Nations-led organisations from across NSW, opens at Powerhouse Parramatta on 7 November.

The exhibition will feature stories from the Baramadagal Community, Gamay Rangers, The Goondee Aboriginal Keeping Place and Museum, Jagun Alliance, Joonga Land and Water Aboriginal Corporation, Moogahlin Performing Arts Inc. and Naru Indigenous Corporation brought to life by Kamilaroi filmmaker Ivan Sen.

It will include Jagun Alliance’s contribution, Water Weaving Fire, a gathering and storytelling initiative responding to the intertwined experiences of fire, flood, water health and cultural resilience on Bundjalung Country that’s strengthening intergenerational learning and deepening relationships to waterways, species and Country through place-based cultural practices.

We look forward to seeing you there on 7 November.
