REMOTELY LIT podcast Ep.10
Host Liz Evans in conversation with Theresa Sainty

We are curators, creators and cultural advisors, and we work across Aboriginal culture, heritage, arts and education. We collaborate to explore ideas of co-design and we facilitate immersive engagement to reveal cultural narratives and connection to the deep history of Aboriginal culture. We are inspired to empower First Peoples to tell our own stories, to celebrate who we are, and ultimately promote the protection of Aboriginal heritage, culture and knowledges.

Theresa Sainty and Zoe Rimmer are Pakana women, who live and work within the Pakana (Tasmanian Aboriginal) community. From a large extended family from Truwana/Cape Barren and Flinders Islands, our Ancestral homelands are situated on the east coast of Lutruwita (Tasmania). We are well-placed to provide authentic information about the Pakana community’s history, heritage and culture within a wide range of contexts and projects.
