Goanna Dreaming – Future Freedom
By Corey O.
Wiradjuri
2024
This painting is about my totem, the goanna, always looking out for me. The sunset with family table, camping ground and important places along the way after my release. I can't wait for my time to be free. To be with my children and family and enjoy a lot of time with them, as I've lost a lot along the way in jail.

Wandayali (Echidna) Dreaming
By B. Ward
Nari Nari/Wiradjuri
2024
This is a painting of Wandayali Wiradjuri word meaning echidna. He is chasing ants, his favourite food. He represents me, once I'm back on Country. I can't wait to have a Boree (fire) tunuut (by the river) and catch guya, kuya (fish) and ignor (crayfish) some of my favourite foods.
