Entries close on the 14th of December, great prizes for We would love your beautiful artwork to brighten up our walls. ... This year the 'Always Was. Always Will Be" theme poster artwork, The Shape of the Land was produced by Noongar and Saibai Islander man Tyrown Waigana. The artwork shows the Rainbow Serpent coming out of the Dreamtime to create this land. It is represented by the snake and it forms the shape of Australia, which symbolises how it created our lands. The colour from the Rainbow Serpent is reflected on to the figure to display our connection to the Rainbow Serpent, thus our connection to country. The overlapping colours on the outside is the Dreamtime. The figure inside the shape of Australia is a representation of Indigenous Australians showing that this country - since the dawn of time - Always Was, Always Will Be #NAIDOC2020 #NAIDOCWeek
