'Indigenous Collectors and Collections' considers Indigenous people's contemporary roles in shaping private and public collections, and the influence of historical circumstances and ideas of communal ownership and responsibility. It therefore subverts the dominant emphasis upon Europeans as collectors and appropriators of indigenous objects. By considering Indigenous people as collectors, curators and presenters of beloved objects, this project will offer major new perspectives on Australian Indigenous history and museology. By exploring the power of material objects in cultural identity and historical consciousness, this project disrupts the stereotype of Indigenous people as purely 'museum victims'.

“土著收藏家和收藏”考虑土著人民在塑造私人和公共收藏方面的当代作用，以及历史环境和社区所有权和责任观念的影响。因此，它颠覆了欧洲人作为土著物品的收藏者和占有者的主导地位。通过将原住民视为收藏家、策展人和心爱物品的展示者，该项目将为澳大利亚原住民历史和博物馆学提供重要的新视角。通过探索实物在文化认同和历史意识中的力量，这个项目打破了原住民纯粹是“博物馆受害者”的刻板印象。
