Brook Andrew Launches New Publication with Jessica Neath

27 Oct 2024

In November, Brook Garru Andrew and Jessica Neath will launch their new publication marramarra: Indigenous artists making history visible, in which Indigenous artists from across the world provide truth-telling about the past and inspiration to imagine better futures.

“marramarra” (a Wiradjuri word meaning to create, make or do) explores how contemporary Indigenous artists and their communities are revealing hidden histories and finding pathways to healing. The book shares conversations with leading contemporary artists, including Tuppy Ngintja Goodwin (Pitjantjatjara, Arrernte, Australia), Judy Watson (Waanyi, Australia), Rebecca Belmore (Anishinaabe, Canada), Nicholas Galanin (Tlingit and Unangax, Alaska) and Pauliina Feodoroff (Skolt Sámi, Finland). marramarra provides new ways to think about the past and imagine a planet that is bright for Indigenous futures — a place that is better for all.
