Her latest poetry book titled the same as her exhibition ‘Talkin’ About Country’ was launched in conjunction with her photographic exhibition.

As a well-known Aboriginal writer, Kerry uses both mediums to portray to the audience the story of her journey. 'The fusing together of visual images together with the written word is a unique perspective, which allows you, the audience to share her journey as a contemporary Aboriginal woman.
