INDIGENOUS VOICES: Third Spaces Collective (bra/kor/fin/nzl/ita/aus)

Third Spaces Collective brings together artists from Indigenous and other diverse cultural backgrounds, with the central aim of developing new forms of intercultural artistic collaboration grounded by Indigenous values and approaches. Drawing on diversity, difference, and indigeneity as core strengths, the collective creates new music in a collaborative third space.

This project is part of the University of the Arts Helsinki Sibelius Academy’s Voice and Justice Third Spaces project, led by Professor Nathan Riki Thomson and kindly supported by the Jane and Aatos Erkko Foundation and Paloheimo Foundation.
