Joshua Pether is of Kalkadoon heritage but lives and works on Noongar country in Western Australia.

He is an experimental performance artist, first nations person and also a disabled person. 

Peta and Josh discuss his connection with his disabled body, growing up in a country town where he was known as 'the boy dancer' and how his indigeneity doesn't always influence his work as a performer.
