Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Celebrating Bronwyn Bancroft's artistic legacy
Q: What drives you to keep pursuing this work and particularly the advocacy element of your work?
She emphasizes ongoing inequality in Australia, the resurgence of racist attitudes, and her commitment to advocate for equality and empowerment of Aboriginal artists, regardless of whether that advocacy is easy or politically safe.
Celebrating Bronwyn Bancroft's artistic legacy
Q: During your speech, you spoke about Bumali. Can you reflect a little on your time when you first joined the collective?
Bronwyn explains how Bumali formed in 1987 with ten artists from diverse areas, highlighting the drive to break down barriers between regional artists and mainstream institutions, and their determination to push for changes that would elevate regional voices.
How Evelyn Araluen envisions 50 Years of Deadly
Q: What do you want the future to look like for Black artists 50 years from now?
I want us to have abundant resources, stronger intergenerational inheritance, and spaces that allow Black audiences to be the first and central audience for Black storytelling, with publishing, programs, and institutions that support growth without sacrificing integrity or community.
Key conversations at this year's AIATSIS Summit
Q: What is the significance of merging the Native Title Summit and the Indigenous Research Conference into one event?
Merging the conferences creates a unified platform that reflects the interconnectedness of Native title issues, research, and GLAM work, enabling broader collaboration and more holistic conversations across sectors.
Remaking Australian mythmaking with Carly Sheppard
Q: Like I was actually initially going to ask you, like what do you hope people like audiences take from this? But I am more interested in what you hope to take from this experience.
Carly describes wanting to re-engage with dance and choreography after a difficult period, while also growing her skills in dramaturgy and storytelling through collaboration, thereby broadening her practice beyond a single project and strengthening cross-disciplinary work.
