Kamarra Bell-Wykes, a descendent of the Yagera and Butchulla people of South-East Queensland, is one of Moreland’s Writers in Residence. Her latest play, WHOSE GONNA LOVE ‘EM?, is directly inspired by her time living in Fawkner and her imaginings on the spiritual and historical significance of the local area; specifically, the Fawkner Memorial Park and the country and suburban features from Boundary to Camp Road and Lynch Road in-between. The Moreland Writers in Residence has given her dedicated time and space to write the project, and has also supported the research component by utilising Moreland libraries local historical archives.
