Karrawirra Parri—Red Gum Forest River—flows through the heart of Adelaide, carrying the stories of my Ancestors, my family, and my own journey. This sacred waterway, lined with towering red gums, reflects the deep connection between land, spirit, and time. It is a place of gathering, memory, and continuity—where the past and present merge, and the whispers of the old ones can still be heard in the rustling leaves and flowing waters. This painting captures not just the life, strength, and spirit it holds.
