But the car's decked out in hot metallic pink and there's opera on the stereo. This is Initiation OA_RR, a new video work by celebrated visual artist Reko Rennie. In this new RISING commission-the follow-up to his 2016 work OA_RR-Rennie cruises the working-class landscapes of his youth in Melbourne's west. At an open tarmac, he puts the customised Monaro through a series of burnouts, referencing 'Westie' drag-racing culture, First Peoples initiation practices in an urban context and the traditional sand engraving motifs of the Kamilaroi/Gamilaroi people.
