This Tuesday 10th June on EarthChat at 12noon on Seymour FM!
This week, Tim Budge talks with Alex Kelly, an artist, organiser and filmmaker based on Dja Dja Wurrung Country. Working across film, theatre, communications strategy and troublemaking, Alex purposefully connects the disciplines of art and social change.
This EarthChat conversation is part of an ongoing series of programs with people who are seeking to be changemakers/ activists or just community leaders. Together this week we explore Alex's work as an activist and an artist and how that has led her to be involved in such as issues as indigenous affairs, climate change and Gaza.
Alex has been involved in some fascinating and cutting-edge work, she was impact producer on The Dreamlife of Georgie Stone, In My Blood it Runs and Avi Lewis and Naomi Klein’s This Changes Everything. Alex has been supported by a Churchill Fellowship, a Sidney Myer Creative Fellowship and a Bertha Challenge Fellowship. Alex’s artistic focus is the futuring practice The Things We Did Next, a hybrid of theatre, imagination and democracy and is a member of the Unquiet Collective.
Read more about Alex here and join us via radio or podcast for a fascinating and inspiring conversation.
