Country in a western sense can be described an area of land that has its own government or land that is not in towns. Country with a capital ‘C’ as used by First Nations people embodies the deep connection to the land, waters, skies and seas within their Nation and Clans. It is also much more.
It encompasses the spiritual, physical, emotional and mental relationship to Country. Country is inclusive of the tangible living and breathing landscapes and the animals nourished by it.
The ancient songlines of 65,000 years of ancestral connections deepen First Nation People’s relationship with Country which cannot always be seen but is intangible.
CIAF 2024 Symposium seeks to expound and educate towards a deeper understanding of Country speaking.
Presenting feature speakers and conversation panels, CIAF Symposium will explore Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultural expressions that spans across western defined disciplines of urban design, cultural practice, performance, art and science from practitioners.
