This work was made, and presented on the unceded lands, of the Wurundjeri and Boon Wurrung people of the Kulin Nation on which I work and live, and recognise their continuing connection to multispecies collaboration, voice, land, song, water and community. I pay respect to Elders past, present and emerging and to all First Nations people.
