Join us for a panel discussion featuring three artists from (Re)telling: Stories of Country and Truth.

Moderated by curator Dr Virginia Keft, this immersive discussion includes artists Dennis Golding, Maddison Gibbs and Jason Wing. The talk pulls together threads of identity, culture and connection to Country to unpack, expose, and question the role that contemporary Indigenous art might play as a platform for truth telling and healing.

The talk will take place in the Creator Space at Chatswood Library.
