Indigenous Art Perspectives on Nuclear Fallout

In this webinar, Indigenous artists Will Wilson (Diné/Navajo) and Yhonnie Scarce (Kokatha/Nukunu) will share their artworks that address nuclear testing on Indigenous lands in the United States and Australia respectively, as well as the deep and lasting impact it had on the First Nations people of those lands. For introductory resources on these histories, click here for Trinity in the USA and click here for Maralinga in Australia. Elizabeth Wise, a gradate student at the University of Oklahoma who is completing her thesis on this topic, will moderate the discussion.

This program is co-presented by The Fralin Museum of Art and the UVA Mellon Indigenous Arts Initiative.
