Acrylic on canvas (2026)
H 30 inches x W 20 inches
50 Years of Deadly reflects on where I’ve come from and the people who helped pave the way. The two barramundi represent the Toonooba River in Rockhampton, where I was born and raised. The five circles woven through the river symbolise 50 years of NAIDOC, celebrating the strength and achievements of our people.
The meeting places and people symbols honour the Elders who fought for our rights and remind us to keep sharing stories, staying connected and keeping our culture alive. The emu tracks represent my totem, grounding the work in my own connection to Country, family and identity.
