“Still on Country and Whadjuk Boodja are part of a series of works where I looked at what people to perceive as Country. Usually it is going out bush. Many people forget that they are walking on Country everyday, walking where First Nations people - in this instance Whadjuk people - have walked for centuries. These reduction Lino prints are of parts of Whadjuk Country, I walk everyday, at Curtin University and Como Beach foreshore, walking where my ancestors once walked.”

Boorloo/Perth

An emerging artist and curator based in Boorloo, Perth, Zali Morgan’s work Australia by the Book is an interrogation of the colonial ideology surrounding how we describe what we now call Australia. “This language often diminishes the struggle of First Nations people,” Zali says. The work is made using steel plate etching and chin collé to collage text.
