Abstract
Heimlich Unheimlich by Sieglinde KARL-SPENCE (visual images) and Hazel SMITH (text), is an installation of collages and poetry that explores through family photographs the post-World War II period, personal and historical trauma, belonging and migration. It is composed of digitally printed polyester chiffon banners, a multimedia video, and hand-stitched objects reminiscent of body parts. The ambiguous relationship between heimlich and unheimlich (homely and unhomely) underlies the piece, which fictionalises the contrasting childhoods of Sieglinde Karl- Spence (German-Australian) and Hazel Smith (British-Jewish).
