UNRESOLVED watching…waiting…

Overview

UNRESOLVED watching…waiting… is a collaboration between Maggie Douglas, Nicola Ingram and Shanysa McConville reimagining ideas surrounding trust, allyship and expectations. A call to action.

Maggie Douglas is a Kabi Kabi artist, living and creating on Ngunnawal and Ngambri Country. Maggie connected with Shanysa and Nic through conversations of what it means to be blak arts workers and artists, considering the responsibilities of non-Indigenous communities/people.

Nic Ingram is a Palawa and Wiradjuri artist based in Nipaluna, Lutruwita. Her work is an extension of her culture, weaving inspiration from lived experience, reflecting on truths of the past and reimagining the future. Nic is always down for a good yarn and finds comfort in resisting through creating.

Shanysa Jayde McConville is an Eastern Arrernte artist based in Naarm (Melbourne). Shanysa's practice concerns interconnection, particularly knowledge with her immediate kin, but also the shared lived experiences of the Blak community more broadly. These notions encourage viewers to consider how Indigenous artists and curators work together despite constant non-Indigenous oversight.
