In collaboration with exhibition designers Multistory and the Western Australian Museum, Lightwell developed an array of touchscreens for Gwoonwardu Mia’s ‘Untouchable Stories of the Gascoyne’. The exhibition allowed visitors to listen to incredible stories from Aboriginal elders from each of the five language groups in the Gascoyne.
As part of the project, Lightwell developed a two-screen touchtable with images, videos and an animaion of the two sacred saltwater and freshwater snakes, Bubawari and Jingabirdi and how their relationship affected the land and waterways around the Gascoyne.
