Tour Guide
Anindita Banerjee (AU)
Anindita Banerjee, a twice uprooted Indian, is an interdisciplinary artist and researcher that lives and works on the land of the Wadawurrung people of the Kulin Nation. Using gestural portrayals of hybrid rituals, she wonders where her place as an immigrant is on the unceded indigenous lands of present day Australia. Having completed her PhD at Deakin University, her research interest includes cultural otherness, authentic identity and the sense of home.
