People Holes (it's not as rude as it sounds)

Writer's picture: Sim LuttinSim Luttin

The holes in the bitumen in the New York city streets would take you down into the depths of the city's underground labyrinth of tunnels, sewers and pipes. The covers of these peopleholes are stunning forms in and of themselves. They vary from cover to cover and reflect the forge that created them and, more commonly now, the utility service they access. Here is my interpretation: from cast iron for the street to handcrafted silver on the body.

Sim respectfully acknowledges the Wurundjeri people of the Kulin Nation, the traditional custodians of the land on which I create and exhibit art. I pay my respects to Elders past and present, as well as to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in the wider Melbourne community and beyond. Indigenous sovereignty has never been ceded. I acknowledge that I work and live on the country on which Members and Elders of The Wurundjeri people and their forebears have been custodians for many centuries and on which Aboriginal People have performed age-old ceremonies of celebration, initiation and renewal. I acknowledge their living culture and unique role in this region's life.
