This artwork depicts a story about connection between land, water and people. The large meeting place is symbolic of Southland and the community that gather there daily. The story shows the Southlands journey through the past, present & future. Visualised through the three journey lines in the bottom right corner.
The story pays tribute to the Country which it is located on. The lands of the Bunurong people of the Kulin Nation.
