Archie Moore shares the title and first details of his presentation at the Venice Biennale.

The Bigambul/Kamilaroi artist has spent the past year working with curator Ellie Buttrose to create kith and kin, a work that pays tribute to the fortitude of First Nations peoples.

Then, a poetic odyssey of rediscovery and resilience with Kirli Saunders.

Kirli says her poetry collection Returning is more than a book; it’s a journey through words and art that reveals the resilient spirit within every First Nations person.

Plus for Word Up, Tamara Pearson takes you to Hope Vale to share a little more Guugu Yimithirr.
