Maile Bowen is a writer, artist, and embodiment teacher based in Walyalup on Noongar Country. Her work explores the relationship to place and culture, influenced by her kanaka maoli heritage. Water and land are central to her work, which also weaves in years of writing on gender and feminism, when she created feminist publication Accidental Discharge, active from 2013-2017. Her practice has evolved through nature and writing retreats and video work and installations.
