Keep the Fire Burning
In vibrant colours, I have depicted a powerful lineup of mob coming together, drawing strength from our collective bonds, we stand in solidarity, “Loud and Proud”.
The background showing country’s lush flora and fauna, my artwork celebrates our ancestral lands and cultural heritage. The focal point of my artwork is a smoking ceremony where first nations people, young to the elderly find connection, seek guidance, protection and harmony. I have depicted and elder lighting the leaves as the rest of mob stands together united. My use of bold and vivid hues highlights the proudness of being a first nations person. The blue symbols of people within the meeting place at the bottom of the artwork represent those who are forever in our thoughts.
This bold painting in its entirety is a visual representation of keeping our culture alive and being free to celebrate our traditions and heritage. “Loud and Proud”.
