I acknowledge the traditional custodians of this land, the land I live, work and create upon, the Boon Wurrung people of the Kulin Nation. I am grateful for the connections I have had with country and its peoples. I feel fortunate to be able to create new work, collaborate and engage with others on this land. I acknowledge elders past and present and value the knowledge carried with them.
