Dominated by rich browns and lush greens, this painting depicts a harmonious scene of families camping in the outback where the spirit of the bush comes alive.
At the heart this piece, a campfire & gathering point radiates warmth representing community and storytelling. Around the fire, intricate journey lines intersect, symbolising the paths traveled by both the male and female symbols scattered across the wilderness.
Male and female symbols are depicted with traditional hunting and gathering tools. Dot work intertwines throughout the canvas, mirroring the interconnectedness of all living beings on Country. Each dot represents a moment in the journey, a connection to ancestral wisdom, and a celebration of the natural world.
