A message from the artist (Ngayt Poonan - 'Content')
This piece represents a long journey in becoming content in my life. It shows the balance of my life both back on Country in Warrnambool and the Bunurong land I am living on in Melbourne. It shows my friends and family who have been with me along the way, supporting me whilst I grow into the woman I am now. The surrounding meeting place symbolise the important places where I have learnt life lessons and shows those who were with me at those times. The animal tracks represent my connection to the land I am on and acknowledges the Traditional Owners.
