The Journey of a Million Miles Begins with One Step
Originally created for Headland Sculpture on the Gulf on Waiheke Island before heading to the Auckland Maritime Museum, Journey of a Million Miles is both an expansive installation and an oral history project, collecting and re-sharing personal stories of migration and resettlement in New Zealand. Four intricately-decorated dinghies found abandoned on Waiheke act as sound shells projecting pre-collected stories of migration, with a fifth boat containing an interactive element in which the audience is invited to listen to and share their own migration stories.
