Arrenrte Santa Teresa, east of Alice Springs,N.T. "When I go back home, out bush, that's when we walk in the quiet and talk to the old people and the young ones. We learn and we teach, about what the bush has for us, how to look after her and not take everything, to take a little from each spot. We gather bush plants and turn them into teas and rubs for wellness. It is a good time" |
On behalf of the Gallery we firstly acknowledge the land now known as Australia belonged to a Nation of People,widely sophisticated, Aboriginal people of Culture, With Gratitude to our Elders past, present and emerging, the Country's ancient Cultural heritage. Always Was, Always Will Be, Aboriginal Land.
We hope that by sharing the Stories of the Artworks more attention is paid to the land supporting us through the emmense Generational Knowledge of this Country Aboriginal people have. |
