This artwork honours the cultural strength and continuity of Wiradjuri weaving. The flowing lines and circular forms represent the way knowledge is passed from the Old People through hands, stories, and generations. Each woven strand speaks to connection — to Country, to kin, and to the responsibilities carried within culture. The movement in the piece reflects the rhythm of weaving itself: steady, patient, grounded, and alive. This painting is a tribute to the women, families, and ancestors who have kept these practices strong, and to the stories held in every thread.

This piece is a tribute to unity, tradition, and the powerful gatherings that kept culture strong.

The patterned ground reflects pathways, kinship, and the movement of generations. This piece is a tribute to the trees that protect us, teach us, and hold our stories in their roots.

This painting reflects the ongoing struggle between Aboriginal people and the forces of colonisation since the arrival of Captain Cook. The stark contrast of black and white captures the tension, violence, and disruption inflicted on First Nations communities, while the swirling forms speak to resilience, survival, and truth‑telling. It honours the strength of Aboriginal people who continue to stand, resist, and protect culture despite generations of injustice. This piece is a visual acknowledgement of both the pain and the unbroken spirit of our mob.
