The object of this piece is to ‘reclaim’ the urban facade in an attempt to restore the landscape to pre Colonisation. Imagining the cascading freshwater making its way down from the site of the Sydney Observatory. Prior to the rapid development of the docklands & its surrounds, the beauty of this tract of Cadigal Country would have been astounding.

Born Adam Douglas Hill, 1970 in Blacktown, Western Sydney to a Dhungatti Aboriginal Father / Caucasian Mother. Trained in illustration & photography, became self – practiced in painting. A classically trained Yidaki player performing nationally and internationally accompanying the likes of Christine Anu, Jessica Mauboy, and Peter Sculthorpe.
