SUPPORT & PARTNERS

The Witness is a collaborative practice and a co-creative assemblage that steers clear of cultural consumption, the art market and the entertainment industry. At The Witness we support Indigenous-led storytelling, cultural practices, and creative sovereignty. Communities must remain the rightful stewards of their cultural expressions.
