Summary:This exegesis is an art and reconciliation response to the Uluru Statement From the Heart. Wardandi Nyungar Elders, Bill, and Nina Webb inform this project of the 1841 Wonnerup/Minninup massacre. Action Research informs the use of Yarning, decolonisation, and collaboration to hear alternative historical narratives. The project culminated in public art and truth-telling workshops to learn and heal together. I ask can art and yarning assist with historical truth-telling and reconciliation.
