"Community Hunting"

John Beck our renowned Aboriginal artist, tells me this is all about the Hunter and his people! How the Hunter shares his meal with his group at the Meeting Place. It shows the tracks the folks make as they head towards the meeting place.

Once again, it is all about Community and being together, maintaining their law and customs and knowledge for survival and attachment to their land.

Aboriginal music also plays a strong role in their culture and Aboriginal “sing their country” in ceremony that combines song dance and art.

Thanks goes to John Beck for allowing me to use his symbols in my Glasswork – together we are able to communicate the story of a proud indigenous Community.
