“ Tracking the Joss- A Moving Story!” An audiovisual presentation. 

Dorothy Khoo, member of the Rockhampton Chinese Association, is excited to share her research on Rockhampton’s very own Taoist altar and the temples that housed it around Rockhampton. Come along this journey to see where and why it all began! 

Artists in Residence LeLarnie Hatfield and Joanna Joy are collaborating on a project that seeks to turn the written works of poet and activist Judith Wright into a television series. The project will be set in Central Queensland and both filmmakers want to ensure local community perspectives are considered in the “World-building” of this series. 

 
“World-building” refers to the process of creating a world within a film or TV show, including the characters, locations and events. To ensure the world of the project is reflective of Central Queensland’s multi-lingual, multi-cultural history the artists are inviting local members of the community to share their perspectives throughout their residency.

About LeLarnie Hatfield & Joanna Joy

Hatfield and Joy are a creative duo who have spent the past four years collaborating on the creation of cross-cultural representations in film. Shot on Darumbal Country, their most recent work ‘Generations of Men’ has screened at the Melbourne International Film Festival, Flickerfest, Brisbane International Film Festival, Darwin International Film Festival and St Kilda Film Festival. This residency seeks to continue their long term creative collaboration on Darumbal Country.

Together these two artists combine their respective expertise and shared interest in facilitation to collaborate on the birth of their latest development. Returning to the RMOA is a “full-circle” moment for these artists who have spent many hours taking inspiration from the newly built space and exhibitions.

 

 

RMOA's 2025 Artist in Residence program is generously supported in partnership with Haymans Elecrtical.
