Publication Open AccessCurated or Produced Substantial Public Exhibitions and Events - Web-based ExhibitionA Conspicuous Object - The Maitland Hospital(Maitland Regional Art Gallery, 2021-04); The website invites viewers to encounter aspects of the history and significance of the Maitland Hospital which is located in regional New South Wales, Australia. The hospital served the local community from the one site for over 170 years and, as such, its accretion of buildings, objects and stories document the history of the site and contribute to understanding and research about the history of public hospitals in New South Wales. In early 2022 the institution was relocated to a new site.
The website is part of a wider project initiated by NSW Health Infrastructure in partnership with Maitland City Council to document, interpret and share memories and material culture relating to the old site. It presents micro-histories about the site, its places and spaces, its people and its material culture. It also provides online encounters with the exhibition held at the Maitland Regional Art Gallery in 2021 which saw 10 artists providing their creative responses to the histories, emotions and memories embedded in the Maitland Hospital site.649 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Publication Open AccessCurated or Produced Substantial Public Exhibitions and Events - Web-based ExhibitionHidden Christian World Heritage in the Gotō「五島の潜伏キリシタン世界遺産」The five interview excerpts showcased in this project represent a small part of a larger, ongoing research project that will be developed into a number of academic publications. The interview excerpts are complemented by short essays with background information in this "Introduction" section of the project. The transcripts are available in both the original Japanese and as English translations.
In 2018 UNESCO registered twelve locations as "Hidden Christian sites" across the regions of Nagasaki and Amakusa, including ten villages, the remains of a castle, and one cathedral. Of these sites, four are found on the Gotō Islands, two being the remains of ruined villages and two being villages that are still occupied today. Researcher Gwyn McClelland began this oral history project by investigating these four sites.
The four locations of Hidden Christian heritage, namely, 1. Hisaka Island; 2. Egami Village, Naru Island; 3. Kashiragashima Island, and 4. Nozaki Island; constitute sites with an important legacy in the twenty-first century that draw our attention to shared understandings of Buddhist, Shinto, Hidden Christian (Sempuku and Kakure), and Catholic traditions and the cultural hybridity of religious traditions therein.
