Mother | Cim Sears7 November - 6 December 2025
Albany Town Hall
‘MOTHER’ contemporises a journey of reclaiming my mother’s stolen identity, her lost family, and how our lifelong relationship became a complexity of dreamlike scenarios, of startling historical discoveries and an extraordinary life together. Utilizing her unbridled passion for growing flowers and her love of nature, I use images of her birth place in the Western Desert and of her flower farm to create a stark contrast to her grim childhood in State institutions during the policies of ‘child removal’. From the ashes of an abject beginning my mother’s spirit prevailed and she miraculously made a life for herself against all odds. This is a witnessing, a kaleidoscope of her experiences, of the deep silences - and an honouring of lives in the face of erasure.
