Music has power. Power to inspire, power to explain, power to effect change. Rapper and musician Sampa the Great knows this only too well. She uses her unique mix of hip hop, roots and soul to convey messages of equality and, in turn, is inspired by the places in which she has lived. None more so than Melbourne. Though she has now moved back to her childhood home of Zambia, she spent the pivotal years of her career here. Our cover story looks at the city’s influence on her as a burgeoning recording artist, and how she and others new to Melbourne bonded over shared experiences. ●

FINDING THE ANSWERS THAT SHAPE THE QUESTIONS
A lot on his plate FOOD Adam Liaw
on why he can’t stand a bland life.
A
dam Liaw often thought it was a bit “frivolous” to like food as much as he does. “There are so many other things, like classical music. Food is kind of a little bit pedestrian, and sometimes I feel like maybe it’s not as important as I seem to think,” Liaw says. But when the MasterChef 2010 winner started work on his new seven-part Audible podcast, How Taste Changed the World, his eyes were opened to how important our relationship with food really is. “I found out why I like having a glass of red wine with a steak,” Liaw says. “Or why is the only time I drink soft drinks when I’m eating yum cha and having dumplings? As soon as you hear about the fattiness and astringency and the nature of ‘mouth feel’, it explains so much about why we like certain things together. “And tropes like expectant mothers craving pickles and ice cream? It sounds like a joke, but our sense of taste has a purpose. The pickles add fermented food to your system, and the ice cream gives you calories that you need to produce another human. It makes evolutionary sense.”
How Taste Changed the World includes interviews with food notables, such as chef Yotam Ottolenghi and writer Fuchsia Dunlop. It delves into topics such as sugar’s effect on civilisation, or how the future might influence what we eat. Each element of taste – sweet, sour, bitter, salt, sour and umami – gets its own episode, “and that understanding of taste and how important it was to making food taste good was truly like an epiphany for me”, Liaw says. In one of the episodes, he and Ottolenghi discuss what they have by their stove and how those condiments or spices give a glimpse of who they are as people. “What we choose to eat and how much importance we put on food does tell an awful lot about us.” Not that he’s judgemental about it; he can’t afford to be a culinary snob when, he says, “I consider myself to be an average cook ... the major difference with me is that I probably have a broader repertoire than most people at home. I put my meals up on Instagram every night; they’re no secret, and they’re not particularly fancy either.”
Wo r d s
Fun fact: his two kids prefer his wife’s cooking. “I can be a little experimental at times.” Liaw says. “I try to increase the level of spice to give them a little bit of appreciation for it, and sometimes I turn it up a little bit too much!” A gobsmackingly ambitious overachiever – he holds science and law degrees from the University of Adelaide and worked as a lawyer before entering MasterChef – Liaw now juggles various cookbook author and TV commitments, including appearing as a panellist in the latest season of ABC’s Tomorrow Tonight. “I do crave the variety of being able to do different things. That’s just my nature. Every show I do is different and shows a different side of my personality,” he says. The podcast allowed him to appreciate food even more, particularly the way that it brings people together. “Hearing how much the scientists and chefs talked about the conviviality of food and sharing a meal and how important that is – that was really fascinating to me. Our taste is the ultimate oral history.” ●

Great inspirations COVER STORY Globetrotting rapper Sampa the Great comes back
to her musical home, Melbourne, for Rising Festival.
S
he has been dubbed the wake-up call Australia needed, raising awareness on diversity, race and politics through rap and her magnetic poetic persuasion. Zambiaborn and Botswana-raised rapper Sampa Tembo, who goes by the stage name of Sampa the Great, won the prestigious Australian Music Prize twice (the first to do so) and scored a few ARIAs for her album The Return in 2019. This year she made her debut at Coachella and has just released a song with US rapper Denzel Curry. Tembo moved to Australia in 2013, originally to Sydney, but moved to Melbourne after a trip here to see a gig at The Evelyn in Fitzroy. “One of the things that drew me to Melbourne was its people’s courage and openness to talk about things that maybe would be hard to talk about,” Tembo says. “People say what they have to say, and I love that atmosphere because it allows everyone to have a conversation and grow. I think that is forever Melbourne.” Tembo recorded 2017’s Birds and the BEE9 in Melbourne, and moved here in 2018. She has since moved back to Zambia, but while living here she created music with like-minded musicians who had similar migration backstories. “Being in places where their families aren’t from is what bonded us; we are the diaspora and it’s something I take with me wherever I go.” As a black African woman, she uses her voice to raise awareness through song, writing tracks that also challenge the perception that rap is a bloke’s terrain. Her latest single, Lane, certainly challenges that assumption of gender and identity. “A lot of artists from Melbourne are in and all over those two records,” Tembo says, reflecting on the releases that changed her life.
“Coming to Melbourne was all about creating a new home, but what is home? The more I travel, I know home isn’t just defined by a place, it’s connecting to people.” A younger Tembo moved to California at age 19 to try her luck, but found her time there a confronting one. It exposed her to what it was really like to be an African woman living there. “When I was in Melbourne, a lot of people I was making music with weren’t from their ancestral place, but we were all able to create a safe space for each other,” she says. “I knew I could grow musically if I moved to Melbourne – and I did.” But it also took being away from her immediate family in Zambia to help her realise the importance of her African roots and acknowledge it through song – at times in her parents’ languages. Her mother speaks Bemba and her father speaks Tumbuka. “My Dad got COVID, which was a huge family scare, and it was one of those things where I wanted to go back home and see my family,” she says. She had a deep longing to be home and it meant she’s been able to slow down, sit with them and do things she hadn’t been able to do before. “This is the first time I can drive around my hometown, to see it with different eyes.” She says she’s been able to work with Zambian artists since moving back there, which was something she had never done before. “There is more a sense of belonging, which is what I was trying to feel when I was in Australia for a long time,” she says. “I have never been, in this part of my life, connecting with my country and it’s amazing.” Sampa the Great returns to Melbourne this month for Rising Festival, where audiences will experience her mix of African heritage and rap in a visual feast of song and dance.

Ph o t o
A ART VERRIPS
According to Rising Festival music programmer Woody McDonald, having Sampa the Great join the festival is a moment he’s been waiting for – he booked her two years ago but COVID cut the winter arts and music festival short after opening night. “The first time I booked Sampa she had only played a handful of shows. She was ready for a big stage from the get-go,” McDonald says. “She returned home to Zambia after a decade living and producing music in the US and Australia. She has put together a band there and will be bringing it to Melbourne for the first time. “I like festival programming that tells a story about the city it’s held in. Sampa has strong links to Melbourne and the line-up she’s curated reflects that [such as artists like her sister Mwanje, Melbourne club DJ C.Frim and Melbourne hip hop outfit KYE]. It’s ideal for us.” The future looks bright for Sampa the Great, but the hardest part is avoiding being pigeonholed. “I have always struggled with the idea of being an artist stuck in one box,” Tembo says. “When you think of Sampa the Great, you think of hip-hop, but if you look at all of my projects, the majority of it is anything but. I am still growing as an artist and there are some other genres I want to connect to.” Her new single Lane is a reflection of that crossroad. Collaborating with Denzel Curry was a happy surprise – she first met him when he performed at the Listen Out festival a few years ago in Australia. “At the time I didn’t think anything of it – a rapper, cool,” she says. “But when he did a Rage Against The Machine cover for Triple J’s Like a Version I thought, this artist has rage! “This is what I was able to appreciate, and we’re both in the same shoes as artists right now – trying to express ourselves in various ways.” ● ● rising.melbourne/festival-program

Cave of wonders
WINERY Hubert Estate has
been reborn as a spectacular subterranean destination.
T
KRISTOFFER PAULSEN
Ford says it is a little bit back and set in, “and that’s exactly what we wanted to achieve – you’ve got to fit into the environment around you”. Under the hill, where the entrance to the cellar door and art gallery lies, a sweep of grey leads to the doorway, a magic portal of concrete. As magnificent as the views are, the inside space competes for beauty, lined in wood with expansive, curved windows and a bronze-coated clay stag as its decorative centrepiece. The Hubert Gallery of Art, just underneath, has Indigenous artworks from more than 20 communities across Australia.
Tim Ford, the chief executive of Treasury Wine Estate, which has long included St Hubert’s wines, says he hopes the winery’s collaboration with the Ryan Hospitality Group (led by the father-and-son team of Gerry and Andy Ryan who have been behind The Prince hotel and the Mitchelton winery, and with whom a partnership for this began five years ago) would make the new estate “the standard-setter for the Yarra Valley”. “It’s not a walk-in, walk-out venue,” he says, pointing out that a visitor told him, “it’s spectacular when you’re here, but if you drive past, it doesn’t look like this from the road”.
DIANNA SNAPE
here is much about Hubert Estate that is likely still unchanged from when it was first established in the Yarra Valley region in 1862: the lush greenery and verdant soil were surely constants. But looking at it now – recently reinvented from the old St Hubert’s Winery – it is clear that modernity in all its streamlined glory has arrived in Coldstream. Is there a bucolic hill that begs children to roll down it but instead reveals a subterranean cellar door and Indigenous art gallery underneath? Tick. Is there a pair of stunningly spare black buildings that look like they’ve gently landed on the terrain, housing both a restaurant and venue space? Yes. Hubert Estate has all of the wow factor and none of the pomp. And the hope is that it is sophisticated enough to summon once-again-eager travellers to bring along all their family members.
Quarters, the restaurant, is led by executive chef Michael Smith, formerly of Tonka, with a 300-seat capacity outdoors and inside. It includes European-influenced food and child-friendly fare. Smith also looks after Harriet, an events space that can hold up to 350 people. The Ryans have plans for an 80room hotel to be built by early 2024, together with a wellness centre, under the guidance of Cera Stribley, who was also the architect for Hubert Estate’s first phase. Andy Ryan says he was influenced by his love of California’s Napa Valley when briefing Stribley, and the result has met his expectations. “People don’t know why they feel that way in this space, but for me, it’s about scale and light,” he says. “Light can make you feel good, and it definitely has an effect on your emotions.” He has no doubt that, once people arrive, they won’t want to leave. “In Victoria, we have always been proud of our food and wine offerings, but regional is going to come out of [the COVID-19 pandemic] stronger than ever.” ●

Artful icon Su san Cohn reflects on 30 years of the famed Alessi bowl. Wo r d s

DOM A IN REV IEW
hen Melbourne silversmith, metalworker and jeweller Su san Cohn designed a bowl for Italy’s Alessi, she never anticipated it would become a design homeware staple that’s still hotly sought-after 30 years later. Cohn made a prototype for the Alessi Cohncave bowl in 1988, and won the Stuart Devlin National Craft Award at the National Gallery of Victoria in the same year.
JA N E R O C CA
Inspired by an Australian colonial meat safe with mesh metal sides she kept in her kitchen at the time, the prototype is now part of the collection at the Powerhouse Museum, Sydney. The bowl was first produced by Alessi in 1992 and has been in production ever since. “I would see this extraordinary pattern from the meat safe coming through my window that inspired the bowl,” Cohn says.
The Cohncave Alessi bowl is now

a household staple.
“I moved to Melbourne to do things on my own and fell in love with the city and [John]. It was Melbourne’s creativity that drew me in,” Cohn says. The basement of Anna Schwarz Gallery on Flinders Lane is where you’ll find Cohn making jewellery and design objects that riff on the urban underground environment around her.
It’s also where you’ll find her meat safe these days. She regularly exhibits her work in the gallery above. Her desire to move into jewellerymaking is no accident, but a lifechanging coincidence. “I came across jewellery through tough experiences as a teenager,” says Cohn, who ran away from home to live on the streets for three years. “I was in a gang of girls and we used
our jewellery to secretly code to each other when we were in tough situations. A twist of a ring would indicate we needed to get out of here! “That was when jewellery went into my psyche. “But it was years later at a dinner party when someone suggested I create jewellery. I knew within six months of getting into the course at RMIT [that I had] found the right place for me.” The artistic parallel lines between her tableware and jewellery point to the power of everyday rituals that still inspire her. “The jewellery is more intimate, it’s a language between people but wearing it represents so much too,” Cohn says. “Eating and food are rituals of life and I am inspired by the fascination of both and try to capture that in my work every day.” ●

CRICOS 00141J
It’s the way Cohn plays with curves and light that instantly appealed to the Italian design giant. Here was a work that resonated with Australia’s past and Cohn’s connection to memory (the Devlin Award’s theme). The awe-inspiring mesh pattern transformed the bowl from a mere vessel into a functional art piece. “It was the juxtaposition of these two perforated materials from the mesh metal sides that really interested me,” Cohn says. “I also liked the idea of making a mesh bowl that allowed the fruit to air and weaved in the moire effect to capture that memory for me.” Cohn moved to Melbourne from Sydney in 1980 and has called the CBD home ever since (yes, even during the pandemic lockdowns). She has been married to architect John Denton for 47 years and now creates jewellery for a living.

FEATURE HOUSE ARMADALE \ 59 UNION STREET 5

When a house is said to be “superbly positioned”, what does that mean? In Armadale in 2022, that position has to be walkably well served. Ticking boxes on Union Street, we find the Union Street Park, playground, cafe and tennis academy. To the west is Armadale station, and to the east, Glenferrie Road. Heritage houses are all around, and this Edwardian home, transformed by NFT Architects, is a remarkable ornament to the street. North-facing on 800 square metres, it’s a fascinating mixture of dark red bricks and pale timber struts, old and new fireplaces, leadlight and full-length glazing. Five zoned bedrooms offer amazing space for a large family. As well as open-plan living-dining, there’s a first-floor retreat and a spacious study. The main living area opens to a glass-fenced pool with jets, and a heated barbecue pavilion. A shrubbery graces the front yard, but there’s also a secret garden with a golf simulation; it’s up on the roof, creating an alluring distraction just beyond the study doors. NFT’s Brett Nixon and George Fortey are fastidious about flow between old and new, inside and outside. Their careful approach is evident here in the original central hall, which now ends in a blast of sunshine. To the left, two double bedrooms have corner fireplaces. The main bedroom, across the hall, has a skylit walkin wardrobe and a Volakas marble twin en suite with a free-standing bath. The open-plan area is chic in oak herringbone parquetry and has sliders to the poolside terrace. In the marble kitchen, the Gaggenau steam and pyrolytic oven, Sub-Zero

fridge-freezer (ice and water), Zip tap and cocktail bar offer everything a home chef would desire. On the carpeted first floor, two double bedrooms share a marble bathroom, a retreat/cinema and the study. Sunseekers will enjoy the secluded garden, made private by the neighbours’ 10-metre trees. The pavilion has a barbecue and a wood-burning heater. Completing the property is a swag of contemporary comforts, including home automation, block-out curtains and four-camera security. The double garage has EV charging and a driveway turntable. ● ALISON BARCLAY property@domainreview.com.au

Brilliant Teachers
More than a smart kid with a sweet serve. For most, Haileybury remains part of their life long after they graduate, like our Head of Boys Middle School and Class of 1987 alumnus, Mark. Mark leads an impressive cohort of boys, empowering them to be the best versions of themselves, be it in class, or on the court … occasionally showing them he’s still got it. The Haileybury family is proud to have Mark inspire our next set of leaders!
