Indigenous

This artwork depicts a man dancing and doing the corroboree, leading people in with strong markings and representation of Indigenous culture to show the dawning of a new day and celebration of First Nations people. Silhouettes of people from all backgrounds walking together as one surround the man. The colourful band below represents God calling out creation and shaping animals and land through colours. The words joy, peace, love & hope mark important words of this calling and shaping into being. Local and significant native animals sit amongst this calling and blend with the native plants planted in front of them. Markings throughout the mural are used as a simple way to show how culture, community, creativity and Christ are intertwined as one.
