Falling into Place, a live art and cultural event at Hastings that Gretel curated with Janenne Willis, as part of the inaugural DRIFT Festival, Mornington Peninsula, May 2022. Photos by Laki Sideris.

BodyPlaceProject is based on the unceded lands of the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung people in Corhanwarrabul/Dandenong Ranges and Narrm/Melbourne, and undertakes work in many other locations. We pay deep respect to First Nations elders past and present, who have listened to Country and danced, sung and told stories in and about their places for millennia, to share knowledge and to care for Country and people. ​
​They are the first site-specific artists!
