For @turbatol, the Australian pod created a gift o For @turbatol, the Australian pod created a gift of incense that is medicine for feeling the peatlands of Minjerribah. Leaves, bark and essential oil from swamp paperbark (Melaleuca quinquenervia), grasstree resin, jelly bush honey (from Leptospermum species), charcoal and water drawn from the Island’s aquifer. 

Similar to much of the Australian landscape, fire has been a part of fen development on the sand islands for millennia. Many of the plants and animals have evolved to not only survive fire but depend on it for their persistence. This incense also carries deep respect for jarlo (fire) and the revival of Quandamooka fire management practices on the island - practices of slow, cool burnings and custodians walking with the flames.

Para @turbatol, la vaina australiana creó un regalo de incienso que es medicina para sentir las turberas de Minjerribah. Hojas, corteza y aceite esencial de corteza de papel de pantano (Melaleuca quinquenervia), resina de pasto, miel de jalea (de la especie Leptospermum), carbón vegetal y agua extraída del acuífero de la Isla.

Al igual que mucho del paisaje australiano, el fuego ha sido parte del desarrollo de pantanos en las islas de arena durante milenios. Muchas de las plantas y animales han evolucionado no solo para sobrevivir al fuego sino también para depender de él para su persistencia. Este incienso también conlleva un profundo respeto por el jarlo (fuego) y el renacimiento de las prácticas de manejo de incendios de Quandamooka en la isla: prácticas de quemas lentas y frías, y custodios que caminan con las llamas.

Standing tall in many of the island’s peatlands Standing tall in many of the island’s peatlands is Ungaire, a reed and cultural weaving fibre with distinct pink and cream hues. The Carmichael women have been working alongside their family, Elders, and community members on the regeneration of Quandamooka weaving practices. In honour of their heritage and the plant communities of the peatlands Quandamooka artist, Sonja Carmichael, adapted traditional weaving techniques over a glass vessel designed by artist Caitlin Franzmann and hand blown by glass artist Jarred Wright. This forms the carrier bag for the Australian pod’s gift of scent to the Chilean Pavilion at Venice Biennale. 

The Ungaire used was collected from a sand mine site in 2019, the year mining activities on the Island substantially ceased.

De pie en muchas de las turberas de la isla se encuentra Ungaire, una caña y fibra de tejido cultural con distintos tonos rosa y crema. Las mujeres Carmichael han estado trabajando junto con su familia, ancianos y miembros de la comunidad en la regeneración de las prácticas de tejido de Quandamooka. En honor a su herencia y las comunidades de plantas de las turberas, la artista de Quandamooka, Sonja Carmichael, adaptó técnicas de tejido tradicionales sobre un recipiente de vidrio diseñado por la artista Caitlin Franzmann y soplado a mano por el artista de vidrio Jarred Wright. Esto forma la bolsa de transporte para el regalo de aroma de la vaina australiana al Pabellón de Chile en la Bienal de Venecia.

El Ungaire utilizado se recolectó de un sitio de mina de arena en 2019, el año en que cesaron sustancialmente las actividades mineras en la isla.
