Festival Platform Shares Our Voice Kirk Page , 2020 single work column
— Appears in: Koori Mail , 15 January no. 717 2020; (p. 28-29)
'Sydney Festival's Blak Out program is the largest single commissioner of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander works in the country. Artistic director Wesley Enoch said Sydney Festival 2020 presents 46 new co-commissioned works, a great many with Indigenous themes at their heart. "There's politics and social perspectives all throughout everything we do," Enoch said. "And it's interesting this idea of history and retrospectives. When you have someone like (visual artist) Vernon Ah Kee doing his work, called The Island, which is looking at Palm Island and (artist) Fiona Foley and her exhibition work, it's both the contemporary and the historical sitting side by side. "When there is more representation, you can look at the diversity of the voices that non-Indigenous Australia is hearing from us." ' (Introduction)
