Margaret Harvey

Margaret Harvey recently completed her PhD at Monash University, titled Caring for Saibai Island Stories: conducting research and creating a performative story in an ethical and culturally appropriate way. She is of Saibai Island heritage in the Torres Strait – Ait Koedal and Samu clans – as well as English heritage. Her interest lies in interdisciplinary performative storytelling that is inherent in the culture of her people from Saibai Island and the mythology that connects the physical plane to the spiritual plane. Working across the medium of live performance and film, Margaret is passionate about reclaiming Indigenous narratives.
