Home again. I& #39;m glad I pushed myself out the door. Met some interesting people, caught up with others I& #39;d not seen for years, listened to an excellent session, and had party pies & red wine
Panel session I went to was Language and the Archives. Featuring Léuli Eshraghi (Sāmoan and Persian artist/writer) in discussion with Unbound Collective. Léuli shared this poem, that he wrote for the exhibition that was being launched today > http://www.fineprintmagazine.com/field-notes#/expanses">https://www.fineprintmagazine.com/field-not...
Léuli was in discussion with Ali Gumillya Baker, Simone Ulalka Tur and Faye Rosas Blanch - the Unbound Collective from Flinders University. (Poet Natalie Harkins is the other member) https://www.flinders.edu.au/college-humanities-arts-social-sciences/unbound">https://www.flinders.edu.au/college-h...
Focus was navigating colonisers& #39; archives and museum collections. And violence of anthro etc. The all-Indigenous panel of academic-artists had a lot to share on this topic - from a place where personal (self, family, ancestors) meets creative practice meets academia meets truth.
An envelope was then passed around the small audience, and we each pulled out a tiny piece of brown paper - a message from the Unbound Collective. Mine said: "We are compelled to find our way into this place, this space. We are on Kaurna Land."
