Artist Bio
Brooke Wandin
wa wa narrinik Brooke Wandin wurundjeri bagurrk woiwurrung dhumbu dulap
I am an artist, an educator, and a language worker. I look for projects and opportunities that enable cultural understanding throughout Wurundjeri Country. These learnings are not static or linear. When participating in creative projects I can consolidate my understanding about my Ancestors and Country; therefore, learning and growing myself, strengthening my identity.
I aim to continue the reciprocal relationship that has existed here since time began. These interactions are always happening, in the here and now.
Brooke is a Director of Wandoon Estate Aboriginal Corporation.
