Julie Gough - Education Resource Pack

Julie says this about her work:

My works utilise found and constructed objects and techniques from diverse sources including the visual arts, the museum, the library, the shop, the garden and my heritage. Much of my influence and inspiration comes from the people, stories, places, skills and connections to my maternal Tasmanian Aboriginal heritage.

Julie Gough has chosen not to live in someone else's script, instead investigating the hidden histories of those that should be remembered. So why are Julie's activities so important to us, not only in Australia and in Britain, but to all the indigenous and colonial cultures around the world?

This art resources pack contains films, study tasks and a teachers' book and is packed with images of the artist's work. The art resources pack contains two DVDs and one CD-ROM:
