Jazz Money

Poetics form the basis of Jazz Money’s practice, which engages visual art, performance and moving image. Her work engages with the enduring effects of colonisation on language, narratives and bodies, approaching language as a site of dispossession as well as of reappropriation. Through strategies of repetition, address, and restraint, she interrogates forms of authority embedded in archives and systems of knowledge, as well as the silences they produce. With writing, voice and image, she constructs forms that reframe memory and authorship through First Nations perspectives.

The Biennale de Lyon acknowledges all First Nations peoples of Australia, their Traditional Custodians of the lands, and Elders past and present. We honour the enduring strength, diversity, and richness of First Nations artistic and cultural practices. We recognise First Nations peoples as Australia's first artists, whose creative traditions have been sustained across millennia and continue to shape the Nation's cultural landscape today.
