Description Installation / During the 19th century hundreds of Aboriginal objects were removed from their cultural home, to be traded and exhibited internationally. Sound of Missing Objects evokes the discourses, sounds, voices and texts that gathered around these objects, and in so doing explores tensions between European representations of Aboriginality and the making of an Australian colonial identity.
