Art, Activism, and Identity: A Yarn with Coby Edgar on Connection and Creativity
In this episode I yarn with Coby Edgar, a proud queer First Nations curator and cultural practitioner. Coby shares her journey from Darwin to Sydney, the intersection of art and activism, and the significance of storytelling in keeping history and culture alive. We explore her approach to curating community-driven exhibitions, the joy of working with mob, and her vision for fostering connection through art.
Coby’s current exhibition, “Same, Same, Different,” at the Blacktown Arts Centre, explores how people connect across cultures through shared experiences like food, traditions, and storytelling. This community-focused show emphasizes the beauty of diversity while celebrating commonalities, inspired by her conversations with mob and her uncle’s insights on cultural overlaps.
The exhibition highlights the connections between people, place, and history, offering a joyful and thought-provoking perspective on identity and belonging. Don’t miss this incredible showcase of creativity and cultural dialogue!
