‘an apology I was never given, and the one I never made’

Artist: Sam Burke

‘an apology I was never given, and the one I never made’ is a site-specific performance work/installation staged at the Natimuk Court House.
This work will be developed during the ACT Natimuk Creative Lab and exhibited as a work in progress at the Nati Frinj 2021.

Resident at the Natimuk Courthouse Sam, invited community members to come sit with her at sessions from November 18th – 20th 2021 to share an apology they were never given and one they never made. These apologies will be collected and developed into a text based sound work, installation, and projection to be exhibited at the Natimuk Fringe 2022.

There was also the opportunity to participate anonymously by leaving written apologies in a special box installed at the Natimuk Post Office from November 15th – 26th 2021
