Abstract
Talking Place: Unfolding Conversations is a publication documenting the collaborative project between Tracy Hill, Monika Lukowska, Annette Nykiel, Sarah Robinson, and Jane Whelan exploring the significance of wetlands with particular focus on Lake Walyungup; a shallow, ephemeral salt-lake in the Rockingham area of Perth. Known by the local Noongar people as ‘the place where people talk’, Lake Walyungup is a seemingly forgotten, empty space in the midst of a growing urban community which offers shelter to migratory birds and wildlife. It has a deep history embedded in thrombolite remains, links with the Noongar community and various historical uses by the passing groups of settlers and armed forces.
