Entangled Knowledges project aims to highlight Menang Nyungar knowledge embedded in an historic collection of fishes, mammals and artefacts held at National Museums Scotland and a portfolio of sketches of fishes held by the Natural History Museum, London. This episode explores how working in a cross-sector, collaborative and Indigenous-governed team can enrich and re-frame the understanding of collections in Museums.
Shona Coyne is a Menang/Nyungar woman with cultural connections to Yamatji Country in Western Australia and the Scottish Highlands. She is also Head of the First Nations Collections and Community Engagement team at the National Museum of Australia.
