Australian National Maritime Museum, HMAS Vampire, Vivid Sydney Festival

The Australian National Maritime Museum and HMAS Vampire at Darling Harbour were illuminated with these projections during the Vivid Sydney Festival. "Harbour Life" was created by Artists in Motion and depicts the indigenous Eora people as they fish with a spear and burra (fishing hook), while keeping the ecosystem in balance;the desolation of oceans as colonial settlers arrive and industrial fishing takes hold; and how conservationists are saving our sea life from pollution and stray nets with ocean-based drones and recycling efforts.

    I enjoyed learning about the actual photos I was seeing. The colors are beautiful, but the story behind the images is even better and more significant. Thanks for explaining what I saw, Jim.
