About Curator Annette Nykiel
I am a settler woman living and working on the unceded Wadjuk, Wiloman and Gnaarla Karla boodjar of the Noongar people but I was born on Bunurong Country on the other side of Australia.
I am embedded in the local; forming long term relationships with a small number of places where I wonder about the precarity of soils and the interdependence of ecological systems including my own in the near coastal wetlands, wandoo woodlands and the ancient salt lakes of the arid lands.
