Saving Lives: Mapping the influence of Indigenous LGBTIQ+ creative artists

拯救生命的目的是绘制独特的贡献，影响力和土著LGBTIQ+创意艺术家的影响，了解如何模拟复杂的dilemma提高土著和托雷斯海峡岛民人民和社区的福祉。该项目利用酷儿和批判性种族理论以及艺术和艺术创作中发现的复杂身份的积极映射，希望挑战构成“澳大利亚土著”的简单化想法，他们独特的贡献，声音和阻力。预期成果将促进对创造性部门以及国家和国际第一民族社区的积极、多样的角色塑造的理解，并为福祉和身份确认带来重大利益。

Saving Lives aims to map the unique contribution, influence and impact of Indigenous LGBTIQ+ creative artists, to understand how modelling complex diversities enhances well-being in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples and Communities. Using queer and critical race theories and a positively-charged mapping of complex identities found in art and art-making, the project expects to challenge simplistic ideas of what constitutes ‘Indigenous Australia’, their unique contribution, voices, and resistance. Expected outcomes will advance understandings of positive, diverse role modelling to the creative sector and national and international First Nations' communities, and provide significant benefits to well-being and identity-affirmation.
