Foreshore speaks to the coalescence of ancient and contemporary landmarks in a local context, where multiple histories emerge from the natural and built environment. Derbarl Yerrigan (Swan River) and Matagarup (Heirisson Island) are punctuated by a complex cultural and political history, and continue to play important social roles. From the vantage point provided by these ancient sites, the viewer is reminded that profound experiences of modern structures arise from the humility of history.
