Early Works

Early explorations in drawing, ritual, erasure, and perception by Damchö (Michelle Tonkin). These formative works trace the origins of a practice shaped by breath, material, and the thresholds of transformation.

I live, love and work on unceded Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung and Boon Wurrung lands of the Eastern Kulin Nation.

My practice is shaped in relation to this place, and with deep respect for the cultural knowledge that continues to hold it. This always was, and always will be, Aboriginal land.
