What an honour to be announced the 2022 recipient

What an honour to be announced the 2022 recipient of the Deutsche Bank Fellowship for First Nations Film Creatives at the 69th Sydney Film Festival.

I am humbly grateful and look forward to the professional development and project success that this fellowship will support.

SFF board member and Blackfella Films co-director Darren Dale said: “The Fellowship is an important investment in developing and nurturing the talents of local creatives and enhancing global awareness of Australia’s vibrant Indigenous filmmaking talent.”

Glenn Morgan, Deutsche Bank Australia’s CEO, said “Congratulations to Kylie for winning the Fellowship for 2022. Watching Darlene use the 2021 Fellowship to get valuable director/producer attachment experience on the mini-series Savage River and start to plan a feature-film version of her short-film “Bluey” has been wonderful. We can’t wait to see Kylie further develop her remarkable artistic craft and continue to be a role model for First Nations Creatives.”

For those asking ‘do I feel comfortable accepting funding from Deutsche Bank’, here’s my response:

I am frequently uncomfortable accepting arts funding, as most of it is sourced from institutions and companies implicated in the destruction of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander heritage and the unsustainable exploitation of Country. Federal and state governments are just as culpable as the private sector. My acceptance of the Deutsche Bank Fellowship for First Nations Film Creatives is not an endorsement and should not diminish their responsibility to the environment – a responsibility we all share as human beings. I urge government, shareholders, corporations, and the public to support immediate reform in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander heritage protection at the federal level, more detail about which can be found at https://culturalheritage.org.au

MC Duties! EAST PILBARA RECONCILIATION BALL 2022

MC Duties!

EAST PILBARA RECONCILIATION BALL 2022

I was raised in regional WA and always enjoy getting out of the city to connect to Country and mix with mob.

Saturday night was fun, educational, joyful and memorable. It’s refreshing to witness first hand a community’s celebration to recognise those who deeply contribute to reconciliation in their town, with genuine passion, truth and hope (for change).

Mr Tinker welcomed us to country and I was seated at the same table as Kimberley Girl (her words) Hon. Rosetta Sahanna, Member of the Legislative Council of Western Australia.

@martumiliartists Art Centre is a stunning space. I had the opportunity to meet local artists Corban and Robena to learn more about the centre and the beautiful artworks (pictured). Wish I could have bought a heap! Highly recommend you visit when next in Newman, WA.

Such a good vibe to see @themerindas perform live again too. How many artists are touring regional WA towns today? Massive props to these women. Their new original songs are deadly. (I still filmed my fave though!)

Thank you to the East Pilbara Shire and the people of Newman for inviting me to the homelands of the Nyiyaparli and Martu to MC your 5th Annual Reconciliation Ball, I had a ball.

End note: Mr Tinker says ‘It’s good to have you here. Yeah. We got a lot of Martu mob on Noongar Country… going to hospital’. I heard these words but understood the deeper meaning beyond words. He was asking and hoping that the ancestors of our country and the people of our country take care of his people away from home. So you mob, if you see any Martu people at hospital or on boodjar, say hello from Mr Tinker and the mob. #bekind

Deep in thought here and holding back powerful tea

Deep in thought here and holding back powerful tears at the Q&A session after #fistoffurynoongardaa screened on the lands of the Ngunnawal people at the @enlighten_canberra for @nfsaonline. It was emotional for me seeing this dub on the big screen again a year after we premiered it at @perthfest. I was reminded of why I chose a #brucelee film to be the first feature to be dubbed in Noongar language and my heart is so proud of this special project. So proud! What a team! I can safely say I have done my absolute best to represent our language, a language that is endangered yet still deeply connected to who we are as a people. The magnitude of this dub will reverb greater after we’re gone. This legacy work is now resting at the National Film and Sound Archive for all time.
