Title : Veronica Daniels – Bush Tucker
Size/Medium : 1200 x 800mm: acrylic on canvas Painting
Story :
In this painting, Veronica shares the stories of her mother, Sarah Daniels’ country. The circular shapes that dance across the canvas represent the tjurnu (waterholes), the lifeblood of this land, each one a wellspring of stories, sustenance, and spiritual significance.
These waterholes, scattered across the country, are more than just physical landmarks; they are places of deep cultural meaning, where the ancestors’ spirits reside.
The sections of varying colors and dots are the mangarri (bush tucker) that thrives in this land. Each vibrant patch and intricate pattern tells the tale of the land’s abundance, where bush tomatoes, wild figs, and other precious foods grow in harmony with the country’s sacred rhythms.
