Mullamar is a new project by Caleena Sansbury, in collaboration with Adrianne Semmens and Kaine Sultan Babij, aiming to create a rich, multidimensional exploration of her great-grandmother Mary Cooper’s life.
By blending storytelling, physical movement, and projection, this creative development will investigate the personal and systemic challenges faced by Aboriginal people in the 1940s, highlighting their resilience and cultural significance.
