Dry Creek

Size & Medium

60cm x 60cm

Acrylic on canvas

Description

Dry Creek tells the story of old water paths moving through dry Country. Colours of cracked earth and reflective paint represent the dry soil, sand and stone after the heat. White dots trace the creek beds and pathways shaped by time.

People travel through the centre, gathering for food and rest symbolising connection, memory and the old creek beds that still hold the stories and footsteps of Aboriginal people.
