This piece is created by the mother-daughter duo, Miimi & Jiinda, who hail from the Gumbaynggirr, Dunghutti, and Bundjalung tribes of Australia's East Coast. The artwork tells a story of gathering and connection, with specific symbolic meanings within the design.
The central symbol represents a meeting place where people come together and connect. The outer circles symbolise neighbouring tribes, friends, and family. The lines or pathways connect these groups to the centre, representing the journey to the meeting place to share stories, culture, food, and celebrations.
The artists use their art as a medium for storytelling, drawing on a rich legacy of cultural expression and healing.
