It features connections on geology, environment (fauna and flora); history (sea voyages) and especially the architecture and design of the cities of Canberra and Brasilia.
A public program of lectures and film screenings, involving speakers from Brazil and Australia, will run through the exhibition, with public figures and leading thinkers providing insights to elements of themes in the exhibition, such as Prof Vernon (UWA) who will deliver a lecture on Canberra and Brasilia at the opening night.
