“sugar racconta un capitolo poco conosciuto dell’emigrazione italiana in australia : gente venuta dall’altra parte del mondo per sudare tra la canna da zucchero in queensland , per una vita che fu tutt’altro che .... zucchero.” ( 2011, sugar, catalogue of works , michael burfield )

“sugar” shines a light on this little told chapter of australia’s history, through an exploration of this missing ingredient: the people who came halfway around the world to toil and struggle in queensland’s cane fields, facing unimaginable hardships and enduring conditions that were anything but sweet.( 2011, sugar, catalogue of works , michael burfield )

The Exhibit will travel to Conzano ( Alessandria) in November 2011 ( from 1 to 30 November 2011)
