Perth-based artist Julia Hales has received the $50,000 award for an established artist at the 2023 National Arts and Disability Awards, recognising her work as a writer, actor and theatre maker.
Hales’ work, including the critically acclaimed production, “You Know We Belong Together” has resonated with audiences from Perth Festival to Edinburgh.
Hales said, “Winning this award is very exciting to me because I get to share my work and to keep helping the voices of people with disabilities. This award makes me feel like I can stand up for myself and my practice, and for other artists (and people) with a disability. I want to make a difference in the world by making work that speaks the truth and making it in a way that works for us.”
