THE ARTIST AND STORY OF OUR MOTHERS COUNTRY:
An Aboriginal piece designed by Leah Cummins - Bunya Design.
"My mother’s Country is a collection of Indigenous pieces inspired from our mother’s country. We grew up strong on country with two identities, one from our father and one from our mother, we want to pay respect to our mother by displaying the colours of her country Kalkadoon Country. The stories you will see the journeys of meeting places and people coming together, the colours radiate the landscape of the browns during the summer time. Our lore (Indigenous customary system), our culture, our country keep us safe."
