a place with no other, explores Karlina Mitchell’s Fijian heritage and her connection to her current home, the Blue Mountains. This solo exhibition is a personal glimpse into multi-generational connections and practices, where the spirit of Talanoa, the act of sitting and yarning in Fijian culture, comes to life. a place with no other employs a myriad of artistic practices, from photography and collage to video installation and performance, fostering a sense of home and nostalgia. By fusing images of the Blue Mountain’s landscape with Fijian imagery and vintage postcards, Karlina Mitchell delicately explores concepts of home, belonging and familial togetherness.
