The big idea behind this painting is to display a very strong, tough Australian sportswoman. Through her athleticism she has helped to inspire a huge number of young Australian girls to take up soccer as their favourite game. I do not care about anyone’s opinion about her, but Kerr to me is the most decorated sportswoman in Australian sports, if not in the world. Reason being, she is the only female soccer player in the world to have won the Golden Boot in three different leagues and three different countries. Because of my love of controversial figures and Sam Kerr’s audacity to withstand harassment and defamation by United Kingdom police, this inspired me to paint her as a symbol of solidarity and what she stands for as a strong woman.
My inspiration for this artwork also came from watching her play during the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup semi-finals against England. Down a goal after the first half, Kerr equalized for Australia with her first goal of the tournament, which was widely praised as one of the best goals of the tournament.

Self Reflection
By Sofia
Often I try to self-reflect which turns into waves of rings around me. This picture reflects my days in general; life is static, surrounded by waves around.

Beyond the Steel Mesh
By Anonymous
The cage stands bold, with its steel-clad mesh. For within its grip, it’s us it holds. Ten foot walls, of cold creme concrete. For outside we muster, like horses in stalls.

Burning Broken Thoughts
By Wolverine
I know you think you’re broken far too much to ever heal properly, like all those other folk that make life seem so real.
