About the Artwork: Knowledge Of Nature 

The saltwater fish represents the connection to the vast oceans and the abundance of life they provide. It symbolizes resilience, adaptability, and the importance of maintaining harmony with the ever-changing tides of life. 

On the other hand, the freshwater water monitor embodies the spirit of the inland rivers and billabongs and our country as a whole. It serves as a guardian of the freshwater ecosystems and the land, reminding people of the preciousness of clean water, healthy country and the delicate balance of nature. 

These two creatures navigate not only the physical landscape but also the spiritual realm. They hold knowledge of sacred sites beneath the water's surface on some high tides and on the country that honours the land and ancestors and old people. 

Their reminder of the interconnectedness of all living beings and the responsibility to preserve the land for future generations. Through their wisdom and guidance. 

The pattern that with in the aqua and fades into the purple is my representation and acknowledgement of each Larrakia family and everyone else now living on our traditional lands. 

The black double lined shape is a rough boundary outline with the neighbouring clans and the circles with the interconnecting lines is the star pattern that shows the importance of ancient knowledge of astrology which connects in to so many stories.
