'This issue of Island contains contributions from First Nations creators across visual art (Rex Greeno), poetry (Yasmin Smith) and nonfiction (Paul Collis and Paul Magee’s collaborative work with Wayne Applebee and Brian Smith, among others), and I am delighted that we can also feature the work of Dharug writer and artist Jennifer Evans, winner of the 2022 Tasmanian Literary Awards Aboriginal Writer’s Fellowship. Jennifer has taken two different perspectives on a story of colonisation in ‘Yudi mirrung walama, coming home’ and ‘BlaQ storywork’. Island feels, to me, immensely richer thanks to all of these contributions and I am grateful to their creators for sharing them with us.' (Editorial introduction)
