Join MPRG’s Curator Dunja Rmandic in a conversation with exhibiting artists Jo Lloyd and Ponch Hawkes as part of the Know My Name exhibition. This engaging discussion will delve into their artistic practices, explore themes of visibility and legacies, and shed light on the cultural landscape of Australia. Ponch Hawkes, an influential Australian photographer, captures key moments in Australia's cultural and social histories since the 1970s. Through her work, she explores intergenerational relationships, queer identity, LGBTQI+ rights, the female body, masculinity, and women in the workplace. Hawkes often exhibits her photographs as series or multiples, inviting the subjects to actively participate in the process. This approach allows her to delve into how individuals utilize their bodies and relate to one another. One of Hawkes' notable series, "Our mums and us," documents her friends standing alongside their mothers and was first exhibited in 1976. Jo Lloyd, a Melbourne-based dance artist, approaches choreography as a social encounter. Her practice challenges the limits of history, form, and aesthetic, seeking to find a language that transcends these boundaries. Lloyd's work has been showcased nationally and internationally, including in Japan and New Zealand. As part of the Know My Name exhibition, Lloyd created the film and live work "Archive the Archive," which pays homage to Melbourne choreographer Phillipa Cullen. This powerful piece focuses on Cullen's extraordinary contemporary dance practice, tragically cut short by her untimely death. Don't miss the opportunity to gain insights into the artistic journeys of these talented artists.

飞飞翔的鱼123

In Melbourne&#39;s Mornington Forest, a pair of kangaroos, father and son, have become the most popular family in the forest. The father kangaroo, steady and tough, is the guardian of the family; the mother kangaroo, gentle and loving, is the soul of the family; the brother kangaroo, lively and curious, is the hope of the family. The little kangaroo in the mother kangaroo&#39;s pocket is the future of the family, quiet and dependent. Each kangaroo interprets the happiness and harmony of this family in its own way.

When the sun penetrates the leaves and sprinkles on them, their fur gleams with a warm luster, as if the whole world is illuminated by their existence. They jump and play in the forest, and their free and unrestrained attitude towards life makes people applaud and cheer for them.

However, their existence also allows us to see the power of nature and the miracle of life. They are not just a group of kangaroos, but also part of this forest and the key to ecological balance. Their existence reminds us to respect nature, protect ecology, and make every corner of this world full of the power of life.

When we leave this forest and this kangaroo family, we take away our awe of life, our gratitude for nature, and our love for life. We know that in our lives, we will encounter various challenges and difficulties, but as long as we have enough courage and determination, we will be able to be as tenacious as kangaroos at any time and in any place.

Finally, let us pay tribute to this kangaroo family, to the courage and determination they show, and to the life force they represent. May every life be respected and loved, and may every corner be filled with the power of life.
