Dominique Chen is a proud Gamilaraay woman and interdisciplinary researcher working at the intersections of relational creative practice, Indigenous studies, and land-based practices including agriculture, cultural food growing, and Indigenous food sovereignty.
She is a Senior Lecturer in Art History at UQ's School of Communication and Arts, specialising in Indigenous Art, anti-colonial and reparative praxis, and practice-led Indigenous Research Methodologies. Her PhD research examines urban Aboriginal food growing, exploring the potential of culturally-centred, relational creative practices in relvitalising cultural food knowledges, systems, practices, and connections to Country.
Dominique coordinates BlackWords, AustLit's dedicated research resource for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander writers and storytellers. She is passionate about people and Country care, and is committed to supporting self-determined, community-engaged and culturally-grounded research within the academy.
