The Arts Story
“Island Home”
This painting captures my Ugar Island roots, showcasing a Dhari worn by traditional dancers, a powerful symbol representing Torres Strait Islanders. Typically worn throughout celebrations and performances. The Dhari is so significant that it formed our Torres Strait Islander flag with credit to Mr Bernard Namok.
“Serenity Serpent”
I was asked by the Founder to try and capture the feeling of the company as explained to me. The painting has the rainbow serpent, meaning healing, just like the team at GAT and how they show their to support their clients. They work together to make a place where people can feel better.
