Being Collected 2025
Thursday 23 October from 6pm to 7pm
The annual Being Collected lecture was established more than two decades ago to acknowledge and celebrate the unique perspectives of curatorship from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
The Chau Chak Wing Museum is delighted to welcome Jack Gillmer to deliver the 2025 Being Collected lecture.
Jack Gillmer is a proud Worimi and Biripi guri of the Gathang language group and an architect who positions Country as the driver of narrative in his practice. Advocating for and facilitating First Nations leadership and co-design, his work navigates both tangible and intangible cultural paradigms to reveal latent knowledges embedded in Country. Jack is particularly interested in forging connection between cultural knowledge systems and the built environment as a space of unrealised opportunity and endless potential.
