Kabi Kabi and Jinibara have been singing at dusk and dawn since their first sunrise.

Light Line is two new First Nations music works, which embed sound at two specific locations, one on Kabi Kabi and one on Jinibara Country —  capturing the majic in the changing light of dusk and dawn.

Featuring Kabi Kabi and Jinibara languages, the works celebrate the significance of the horizon: the meeting point of the water with sky and the majestic canopy lines.

Experience a moment of solitude, and reflection, as you listen to the stories and voices of this country that have always been here.

Light Line - Kabi Kabi can be experienced in Ocean St, Maroochydore as part of the Festival Precinct's Urban Gallery and Light Line - Jinibara at Mary Caincross Scenic Reserve.
