A Perth Festival commission.
A west Kimberley Saltwater story. Over dinner.
Take your seat at an opulent long table set with custom designs by regional WA artists. Surrounded by a monumental video installation you’ll be immersed in a unique ‘nose to tail’ dining experience.
As you enjoy your meal, the whole journey of the ‘killa’ – Kimberley cattle taken straight from the bush and shared amongst families – comes to life, inviting you to share in cultural narratives and life experiences from the west Kimberley coast.
Whilst the filmed preparation of the animal unfolds in the projections around you, eight very special dishes, prepared by head chef of the Double Rainbow kitchen, tell the story of Aboriginal food cultures and how introduced species have become part of the Kimberley diet.
Created with a team from the Kimberley, Killa: Pindan to Plate is a literal visual feast. Savour select saltwater treats and honey-driven desserts alongside smokey pindan-inspired beef served multiple ways. Walk with us as we pull back the curtain to a lifestyle that is conscious of food sustainability and eating practices that exist alongside living on Country.
Flesh out the social, economic and cultural context of food and life – and put your money where your mouth is.
