Tahlia Palmer's work grapples with tensions of the weight of colonial trauma and finding comfort in recovering ancestral practices. She's an artist of Murri and European lineage, working in a variety of mediums to explore history, identity and perception. Her art practice works on confronting the conditions that create and perpetuate inter-generational trauma, as well as finding pathways for healing. She chatted with Race Matters and unpacked her creative process and what it is to turn political intentions into poetic musical expression. 

You can catch Tahlia performing as amby downs as part of the Volumes festival happening at Art Gallery of NSW on September 27th from 7pm. Entry is free, more details here.
