ONE LAND-MANY PEOPLE
This work is a representation of our land and our people. The Magenta background is symbolic of our rich soils and our rich history. The large waterhole in the background connects life and land to water which both need to survive and thrive.
The black and white circles in the centre of the image represent our ancestors.
Spreading out across the work are many orange circles which represent different people and different mobs. These circles are joined across many paths to each other and our ancestors.
This work tells the story that no matter how far we travel or what path we take in life we are always connected to our ancestors and we travel our journey with their knowledge, strength and guidance always by our sides and in our hearts.

HEALING POWER
This work depicts the connection between our families, communities, people and the land.
The circles are shaped as plants and leaves to show the healing power of nature in our culture. This comes from being on country, the connection our people have spiritually, emotionally and physically to the land we live upon and the healing powers of our natural food sources.
The circles overlap and intertwine to show the connection between our families and communities and the strength, identity of self, belonging, support and healing powers these connections provide amongst our people.
The colours are vibrant and strong showing the strength and courage of our different personalities and people throughout time and into the present day.
The work has no clear boundary it continues on in an evolving pattern just as our people will continue on into future generations.
