Assets for Bukjeh at Shepparton Art Museum. In Arabic, Bukjeh is the name for a small pack of belongings carried by travellers and refugees. These few objects paint an intimate portrait of their carrier, with each item holding memories and histories of places that were once home. Led by artist and creator Aseel Tayah, Bukjeh at SAM transported its audience on a journey through performances of music, dance, poetry and spoken-word depicting the stories of Bukjeh from the Shepparton community. bukjeh.org
