Patricia Mckean (Gunditjmara/Kirrae Wurrong) is this #yarratrams artist - and I find it absolutely striking!

Theme: “NOT SORRY FOR, WHO WE ARE”

TRAM ROUTE : 5, 6, 16, 72 :dingdingpixel:

ARTIST STATEMENT :

“In the centre of the piece is a reference to an amazing elder, an elder who is my grandfather Banjo Clarke.

Grandpa is a big inspiration to me because of his leadership, he helped with land rights and many other connections back in the day.

He was respectful and wise; he is also known as "the wisdom man". Him looking up to the stars centres the universe of now which I am a part of as a young person today.”
