Circle of Life by Tha Shee

Tha Shee

"My video is based on the flower and the human it’s about the 'circle of life' and reflects everyone being born, getting old and dying, just like the flower. I am really excited to be part of Duniya Behter because I am learning so many things, like creative technical skills and connecting with other cultures, learning and get more ideas from other young people as well."

Past project

Duniya Behter

Wed 11 Aug 2021 - Sat 30 Jul 2022

Duniya Behter shifts the mainstream narrative about people with migrant and refugee backgrounds, from vulnerable to capable. Women and young people in Bendigo and Shepparton drew from their cultural roots, to build creative businesses and produce new digital creative works. The name, Duniya Behter, emerged from conversations with young Cultural Facilitators employed to work on this project and it speaks to the spirit and intention of MAV’s regional Victoria program. It is a reflection of some of the cultures in Bendigo and Shepparton where the project is based. Duniya means the world in Arabic, Hindi and it’s also found in the languages of Swahili, Hazaragi, Urdu and Persian, where it holds a similar meaning. Behter means better but working together to make better.

MAV has a profound commitment to arts and artists shaping the narratives that define who we are as a multicultural nation.
