Artist: Jessica Begg, Yued Noongar Woman. Jessica is a proud Yued Noongar descendant living in her hometown of Moora, Western Australia, with her family. She felt inspired to create art as a way of feeling connected to her culture, which has been mostly lost due to her great grandfather being part of the stolen generation.
She draws inspiration from her family, the native flora and rough spinifex of the Yued region, the heat in the summer, the Moore River and the meeting places in between. She uses an unrestricted palette and traditional shapes and symbols to create a contemporary interpretation of her culture.
Artwork Story: This piece represents my Grandmother's Country. It means so much to be able to paint my country, heavily focusing on the landscapes where my heritage lies, where my spirit is connected, where I have been born, where I am living. Feeling a sense of connection to the past, to my family, and to the land that has been our home for generations. I feel a sense of belonging and purpose.
