Kerri Clarke (Boon Wurrung, Wemba Wemba) works with communities across southeastern Australia, maintaining and establishing cultural connections for Aboriginal communities, families and young people. Kerri has participated in the revival and making of cultural objects for over 20 years, passing this knowledge onto family members and the next generations. In particular, she is an established Possum Skin Cloak maker and has facilitated the creation and exhibition of many cloaks across the south east of Australia and internationally, including the Seven Sisters Possum-Skin Cloak currently on view at the Mount Holyoke College Art Museum.
