This project aims to unite conflicting versions of Australian history by investigating the impact and effectiveness of Australian Aboriginal Frontier War memorials. It will expand our understanding of the shared sacrifices by First Nation and settler Australians during the frontier war and demonstrate the reconciliatory potential of memorialising art informed by Indigenous oral history and creative arts research and practice. The social and cultural benefits include developing a new understanding of the historical construction of Australian national identity and the potential of Indigenous art to transform the function of Australian military monuments as well as a permanent archive of short documentary films and publication.

该项目旨在通过调查澳大利亚原住民边境战争纪念馆的影响和有效性，将澳大利亚历史的相互冲突的版本统一起来。它将扩大我们对原住民和澳大利亚定居者在边境战争期间共同牺牲的理解，并展示通过土著口述历史和创意艺术研究与实践纪念艺术的和解潜力。社会和文化效益包括对澳大利亚民族身份的历史建构有了新的认识，以及土著艺术改变澳大利亚军事纪念碑功能的潜力以及纪录片短片和出版物的永久档案。
