Funded Activity Summary

Representation, Remembrance and the Monument. This project is designed to respond to the repeated high-level calls for a national memorial to Aboriginal loss. The project considers the crucial role that contemporary memorials play in societies that are increasingly addressing traumatic histories, and how international memorial projects shift public memory and cultural understanding. As Australia continues to strive for reconciliation, this project embraces the potential for memorials to become powerful public spaces where the history of the Frontier wars can be addressed. Ways of representing and remembering this past will expand and strengthen civil society.
