With this sculpture we wanted to translate our collaboration ?My Country?s Story? into a 3D object. This style is a collaborative combining Tarisse?s My Country style and Sarrita?s Language of the Earth style. The painting shows the tearing away of the land, specifically areas around Katherine to reveal the Earth?s story. The history of the land where we come from connects us to our family, our culture and all living things. Sarrita seeks to express her impression of the land and some of its stories. The symbols within the painting are patterns for the viewer to connect with but the layout of the painting has its own story. The choice to use metal is a reflection on the strength and longevity of the Australian Indigenous culture and the stories passed down over the centuries. The natural tarnish & rust is a reflection of the age of the markings and long history of these stories.
