Ngarrindjeri Elders

Description:

Our Elders are important in our Culture and every part of my artwork connects back to them, represented by the large circle in the centre.

The other central circles reflect the next generations: the smallest circle represents the kids and the medium is our parents.

A river runs through the middle with spears, showing how to catch food like fish.

Campsites on the riverbanks represent where I’m from – Murray Bridge on Ngarrindjeri Land.

I live on one side of the river and the rest of my family is on the other side. Animals are alongside the river drinking water.
