Storytelling Through Art is a film project and ongoing series centering different First Nations artists from across the continent and surrounding islands. It is a tribute to our unwavering creativity as First Nations people, and a testament to how our art transcends aesthetics.
Our art is communication, activism, an archive to store knowledge. It’s intergenerational storytelling. It’s healing.
The series is produced, directed and edited by Arrernte and Luritja woman Talia Liddle.
