GOLD AND SILVER - Vietnamese Migration and Relationships with Environments in Vietnam and Sydney - new online exhibition

www.migrationheritage.nsw.gov.au/exhibitions/goldandsilver

 

"Gold and Silver" looks at people's changing relationships with environments in Vietnam and Australia through four personal accounts of refugees and migrants from Vietnam. In this new online exhibition you can explore people's attachment to homeland and nature before leaving, ongoing connections to homeland and revisiting, stories of escape and moving, plus making new homes and attachments in Sydney's southwest. 

These histories show us how cultural knowledge shapes the ways Vietnamese Australians know places and make places home over their lifetimes - whether it's the Perfume River of Hué or the Georges River parks like Chipping Norton in Sydney.

 

"Gold and Silver" is a NSW Migration Heritage Centre online exhibition in partnership with the University of Technology, Sydney and the NSW Department of Environment and Conservation: www.migrationheritage.nsw.gov.au/exhibitions/goldandsilver
