“I think having an arts course at CDU is really important because it gives that opportunity to train and develop our local talent”
Four of the amazingly creative and talented CDU arts students, Lisa Thomason, Natalie Vigden, Angie Soares and Ella Barrett are currently working on an arts project as part of 2020 Territory Wildlife Park's Artists-in-the-Park program.
This program provided them with unique opportunity to create the mermaid sculpture using varied recycled and natural materials such as old wire, recycled fabrics, eco-dyed fabrics, vintage fabrics and teabags. They are guided by our lecturer in Visual Arts, Sarah Pirrie. |

Caring for Mum on Country |
|
|
"Being a researcher in the Northern Territory of Australia is one of the most unique opportunities that I can think of, I get to swap the office for being on country.
Dr Sarah Ireland talks about her work as a Medical Anthropologist in the remote region of Arhnem Land. Her latest research project called "Caring for Mum on Country" looks at how Indigenous knowledge can be used to empower women to become "Doula", Indigenous
childbirth companions. |
