AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'E is 70 percent water and 30 percent confused. Freestyle, butterfly, breaststroke, blakstroke. Swim is a performance poem on Australian swimming, the sovereignty of water and the strength of culture and family in keeping us safe, told by a young queer Murri ready to hit the fast lane at the local pool.'
