Looking out across the river, five origami-like boats sit on the water, part of Shaun Kirby’s Talking Our Way Home installation on the Karrawirra Pari, also known as the River Torrens. Taking a look at the boats, there is writing, which is letters written to loved ones by migrants in the 19th and 20th centuries who immigrated here.
