An outdoor short film projection, this free event will screen at 7.00pm every night of the festival from Sunday 1 September, excluding wet weather.

Wannang Biridge means ‘light of the Peppermint Tree’ in the Wadandi language of the Margaret River region. Martine Perret and Roly Skender’s audio-visual artwork Wannang Biridge, will be projected on to Busselton town’s Peppermint Trees.
As part of their ongoing investigation into the intrinsic connectivity of the land past and present, they collaborated with Wadandi people Mitchella Hutchins, Vivian Brockman Webb, Mabenan and Majinda Hutchins, to portray the sacred feminine significance of the Wannang tree.
Light of the peppermint tree is part of a continuing collaboration and consultation with Indigenous Elders of the Southwest of Western Australia which investigates the universal idea that everything is connected, and how the memory of the land intrinsically passes through and between us.
