"Murrawarra."
This is a Wiradjuri word meaning to stand ones ground.

This piece shows our strength and connection to our country and culture and the grounding we get through our ancestors.

The red earthy background is representative of the colours of the land. The dotwork that transitions through browns represents an aerial view of dried up water holes. The dotwork that transitions through the orange and red colours represents the sun as it moves across the sky. Our ancestors are represented by the orbs that are shown to float around the canvas. This beautiful, strong Aboriginal woman is standing strong for her family and shows a proud stance for her culture. The monarch butterflies represent her ability to break free from past and future limitations placed on her by those around her.
