This isn’t a wind-up, Hills Hoist Volume 5 is here!
Merinda Dutton’s SAY HER NAME is dedicated to all First Nations women whose lives have been taken in acts of violence.
Ronald Araña Atilano shows us a moment of flurry and focus in Workers playing football, while Nick Crowley tries to catch the tram to Ascendant Station. Alex Creece gives us, amongst other things, Paddington as ‘an immigrant, a prison abolitionist / with a hat full of marmalade’ in Shit’s fucked, and Cian McGowan‘s Inertia takes us inside a frictionless mind.
Sagar Nair forms a neighbourly relationship with a goat called Samantha in Halloumi, while Natasha Chuan‘s Ruthie works the late shift.
Stephanie Powell gives us grief, parenthood and Ray White in Mixed zoning. Morris Bryant takes us to the ballet in Consider, Peter. Tayla Richarson traces moments of intimacy in the back seat with Marshmallow. Isabel Ross goes home for One week, and James Stanwix‘s Rangefinder invites us to look through lenses.
