What becomes possible when kinship leads the ways we think, learn and connect?
A new Indigenous-led exhibition is exploring the power of kinship relationships that hold Country, Ancestors, families, plants, animals and knowledge together.
RADICAL CARE: Kinship Collab brings together Indigenous artists, cultural practitioners, Elders and knowledge holders, from this continent, the Pacific, Asia and beyond, to create a space where Indigenous knowledge systems and ways of being will be in dialogue with art, science, design, culture and community.
Co-curated by Dr Brook Andrew (Wiradjuri/Ngunnawal), founder of BLAK C.O.R.E. and Director of Reimagining Museums and Collections, with Dr Ryan Jefferies, Director of Science Gallery at the University of Melbourne and acclaimed arts journalist and cultural practitioner, Namila Benson (Tolai, Papua New Guinea).
