Artist Statement
'JUWA' is ultimately about a deep connection to Country. It is my understanding of home. Over the last few years I have learnt alot about who I am as a woman, a First Nations person and as a survivor of trauma . I have watched as my ancestors have delicately created a place for me to belong. This body of work explores the diversity within both the bubu ( land) and jalun (sea). It is an outcome of ancestral trust… My mob have always taught me that the land does not belong to me , instead I belong to the land. Therefore in times of despair I have had nothing left to search for. Everything I need is right here at my feet and within, but sometimes it takes juwa ( Too long a time) to realise.
