Celebrating the Summer Solstice 2024

The oppressive heat of earlier in the day gave way to a cool and breezy afternoon and evening as friends of Mirramu gathered to celebrate the Solstice on 21 December.

The event began with botanical artist Sharon Field speaking about her artistic response to climate change: 3000 Days and Counting. She has been recording flora every day in the countdown to 2030 – the IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) shows that we need to keep the global temperature below a 1.5 degree Celsius rise by 2030. She showed the audience her 2nd scroll. She is now working on scroll 4.

Then Elizabeth previewed her book Nature Moves – A Dance Pratice in and of Nature, speaking about its origins and content and showing some of the many photographs which support the work. Pre-orders were taken. The book will be available mid-February.

This is the second Dalman Productions book, the first being out of silence – a collection of  the late Jan Dalman’s photographs of Marcel Marceau with accompanying text in English and French.

After a delicious supper provided by Bernadette (to whom thanks as always), there were two performances from Lake Song: the first a solo entitled The Eagle, performed by Charmaine Hallam and the second a group piece by members of The GOLD Dance Company.

In the final years of his life, Jan Dalman carefully selected what he felt were the most potent, evocative and expressive photographs he’d taken of Marceau from the wings during performances in Australia. His great wish was to have a book published to honour his friend Marcel, who had passed away before him in 2007.

out of silence – Marcel Marceau by Jan Dalman is the realisation of this dream.

the photographic exhibition runs from 11 January – 24 February 2019.
