    Abstract

    Sydney Harbour! Gorgeous blue water, glittering city skyline, exclusive “dress circle” suburbs, lovely fresh ocean air. However commercial fishing has been banned in Sydney harbour because the marine life is considered toxic. Recreational fishing is extensive, but fish caught on the Western side of the Harbour Bridge should not be eaten as they contain high levels of dioxins and other carcinogens. Waterways, a video installation created for the Urbanition: 2011 Sister City Biennial: San Francisco and Sydney exhibition, offers ideas for solutions to these problems while at the same time revealing the underbelly of Sydney Harbour through a mash-up of the popular 1990’s TV show Water Rats.
