TARRYN LOVE
“I am a proud Gunditjmara Keerray Woorroong woman, born and raised on Wadawurrung Country. I am a koorroyarr, teenyeen ngapang, tyeentyeeyt ngapangyarr and wanoong ngeerrang - granddaughter, youngest daughter, youngest sister and proud Aunty.
I am an emerging artist, curator, and producer, and whose practice exists in the space of creative cultural expression. I create under the collective of Koorroyarr which means ‘grandaughter’ in my Mother Tongue, honouring my positionality as a Gunditjmara woman. Koorroyarr represents that the sustainability of cultural practice is in the sharing of knowledge and pays respect to my family and Ancestors, past and living. My work represents the distinctiveness of Gunditjmara ways of Knowing, Being and Doing that is not one way but constantly happening and changing. Overall, I aim to explore my identity in the here and now while centering language and carrying on the work of remembering, reclamation, regeneration, and revitalisation.
