Join Danièle Hromek and Sarah Lynn Rees for a yarn with Francoise Lane and Nicole Monks about working effectively and respectfully with First Nations artists on built environment projects. 

Artworks and collaborations with Indigenous artists can play important and meaningful roles in built environment projects, supporting cross-cultural connections, enhancing belonging and building meaning. Artists bring complementary insight and skills and productive, respectful working relationships can enrich all. Unfortunately this is not always the case. Too often artworks are commissioned late in a project, applied as an afterthought, or expected to do all the work in building connections to Country and community.

Join us for a yarn with Francoise Lane and Nicole Monks exploring how to work with artists in ways that build opportunity and avoid the pitfalls. What are the protocols for artists when working on their own Country as compared to someone else’s? How does this impact the stories that may be told, or the nature of the art that is possible? What does all this mean for built environment practitioners building respectful impactful relationships with Indigenous artists?

Nicole Monks is a multi-disciplinary creative of Yamaji Wajarri, Dutch and English heritage living and working on Worimi and Awabakal Country (Newcastle). Francoise Lane is an artist, textile designer and interior designer based in Gimuy (Cairns). She is a director of Indij Design and was Artistic Director of Cairns Indigenous Art Fair from 2022–2024.
