Funded Activity Summary

Moving Stories: Emerging Documentary Desert Painting and Interactive New Media. New forms and practices of desert Aboriginal women's 'documentary' art and media that depart markedly from the Dreaming story-based traditions are emerging in a context of severe socio-economic disadvantage. The implications of this important 'witnessing' work have not yet been studied. This project is an innovative arts practice-led ethnographic study that will investigate the significance of experimental narrative-based desert arts, focusing on documentary paintings and their transformation into interactive animated multi-lingual multimedia works. It will critically assess digitally creative intercultural collaboration as a key mode of contemporary Indigenous cultural survival and national cultural production.
