I'm a festival artist at the Adelaide premiere of the Jaipur Literature Festival in OzAsia!
I am in two sessions, one is Hyphenations: Bridges Across Cultures, with Jamie Marina Lau, Hoaran Huang and Zhang Yueran hosted by Elizabeth Flux, where we will chat over navigating the hyphens of our identities. The other panel is one that I'm hosting in conversation with Taiwanese Aboriginal (Puyuma) author Badai and Aboriginal (Nukunu) Australian author Jared Thomas. So grateful to Baiyi Sun, Badai's friend and interpreter who arranged to post me Badai's works which I can't find in Melbourne. I've now super immersed myself in Badai's incredible work Sorceress Diguwan which was originally written in Mandarin and Puyuma, and then translated into English. And I've also submerged myself into Jared Thomas' incredible PhD exegesis which accompanied the creative component, his young adult novel Calypso Summers.
