10:30AM: Dr Leah King-Smith and Associate Professor Dr Bianca Beetson discuss how images—whether created within families, collected by institutions, or layered through contemporary artistic practice—shape, distort, or reclaim the ways Indigenous lives are seen, remembered and understood. Moderated by Associate Professor Deb Duthie.

11:45AM: Nici Cumpston (via Zoom), Robert Andrew, and Celise Gibson discuss how First Nations artists assert sovereignty through the very act of making. Through this conversation, they question what it means to create from a place of cultural authority, lived experience and self-determination within contemporary art and research spaces. Moderated by Professor Donna Hancox.

12:30PM: Spoken word performances by exhibition collaborator and leading First Nations practitioner Ellen van Neerven and Maria van Neerven.

A light lunch and refreshments will be provided.

The panels will also be available to attend online via Zoom. Please register to receive the Zoom link.
