In this next episode we hear from the inspiring artist Madison Connors, founder of @yarlicreativeabout launching her business during the pandemic, her cultural heritage as a proud Yorta Yorta, Dja Dja Wurrung and Gamilaroi woman and her vast experience acting as an advocate for women's health. The episode forms a part of a new mini series, which focuses on Women's Health through speaking to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Artists. As the Doyenne Interviews will be starting to speak to more artists, both local and international, the podcast wanted to start with first nation's peoples, because these are the oldest living culture on earth. This mini series is supported by @alastairswaynfoundation - Thank you! There are so many sides to what makes us healthy. Madison talks about her work in the public health sector, and also her work promoting women's health as an artist, producing digital art for campaigns for Cancer Council Victoria and Department of Premier and Cabinet. We also talk about her own health journey, thorugh pregnancy and life. This episode discusses her current work 'Healing through Buliana' (Pregnancy) which is a part of the 2020 @melbfringe.
