Fiona Foley (1964-), Butchulla people, Land deal, 1995, flour, found objects and text, NGA.
"She [Foley] says, ‘My work is talking about the racial tension that’s here in this country and is never fully articulated — it’s always under the surface.’ [...] The installation Land Deal is simply comprised of the items that John Batman gave to the Wurundjeri people in 1835 in exchange for the land where the city of Melbourne now stands."

Butchulla woman, Shazharna Anmanari Brown'x, Australia, by Trent White
The Butchulla people say the reclamation of two properties on the island is just the start.
“The greatest day of our lives will be the day that we have presence on K'gari, living here and also bringing our elders over to enjoy. It's a deed and they can't take it away from us, so it's what we do with our land that is more important."
Yirinda beautifully interweaves Butchulla tradition with modern production and classical instrumentation. The resonant melodies crafted by the duo carry thousands of years of stories and culture, yet they also ascend into new.

K’Gari, formally Fraser Island, officially renamed by Australian Government.
K’Gari is the original placename for the largest sand island in the world. After Captain James Fraser and his wife Eliza were shipwrecked on the island in the 1830s, it was renamed Fraser Island. Historians suggest that following Ms. Fraser’s rescue, she shared false accounts and stories about the Butchulla people. This resulted in the subsequent genocide of the First Nations people. To the…

Good News! The dingoes involved in the recent incident at K'gari will not be killed.
This is the first time that any dingo who so much as looks at a human hasn't been killed. This also coincides with the Butchulla people of K'gari being reinstated as the rightful land owners. Media and first hand accounts have made no statements regarding this (my own) speculation, but one can only hope that this means a better future for the dingoes and people of K'gari.
For anyone who needs some background story: two tourists were jogging through clearly indicated dingo territory, and despite being told not to run, they did. Two juvenile dingoes chased them, and one nipped one woman on the leg. As it has been in every time there has been a negative interaction between dingoes and people, it was a direct result of people being stupid. No other way to put it. The injury was minor, and I can only imagine the laughter of anyone who works in a vet surgery if they saw it, then saw reports of media calling it a 'mauling' and saying the dingoes were trying to 'bring them down'. The dingo community were bracing for another mass cull of dingoes, or a witch hunt against the two young dingoes. We can breathe for a while, now it has been confirmed that this isn't going to happen this time, despite the dingoes now being watched closely by park rangers (the ones who carry out the killing). I'm glad they didn't meet the same fate as Inky and his brothers.
