Riverlinks and Hubcap productions presents DUST – BREATH OF LIFE

Riverlinks and Hubcap Productions are combining to bring an authentic and valuable production, DUST, to Shepparton in October. This will be a huge community project and will give people the chance to perform, collaborate and work with professional artists.

Dust celebrates the endurance, integrity, and courage of those affected by asbestos related diseases. It is a creative collaboration between these people and artists.

Dust springboards from the presence of asbestos in our daily lives: toothpaste, electric blankets, cooking utensils, industrial boilers, surgical thread, installation, ship lining, bricks, lagging, hair dryers, and cigarette filters- all at sometime contained asbestos.
Asbestos-related diseases primarily attack the lungs: those afflicted struggle to breathe normally.
Breath is the artistic core of Dust.
Breath carries our voice; tells our stories and is the foundation of song.

Somewhere is my breath
