Guultja - maternal oceans speaks to the design for this place encoded in the dance between waters of two different clans connected through kinship as mothers mother and daughters daughter. Known as märi/gutharra this connection is symbolically understood as the backbone. The hand sign for this relationship is to tap the top of ones spine. It is the supporting skeleton of all relationships through the endless infinite line of womens bodies. endless infinite line of womens bodies.

19.01.2022 Lodi Lovett is a proud Gunditjmara woman and post release artist. She signed up to The Torch program in 2016 and quickly found her passion in something a little... different - creating spectacular silk scarves. Lodi uses an eco-dyeing process to create her scarves, which is an earth-friendly technique using natural dyes found in nature. She uses different leaves and types of bark from her local environment in the Grampians, as well as certain food scraps such as onion skins to create beautiful, vivid patterns on silk. Lodi's art practice has proved incredibly popular. She has created and sold 60 scarves through The Torch, each with its own unique, hand-made design. What an amazing achievement! We have just received 15 new designs from Lodi priced from $60, take a look at thetorch.org.au/lodilovett and snap up your favourite! Image: Torch Program Manager Susannah Day and Artist Lodi Lovett

05.01.2022 'In the past, it was a real struggle for Aboriginal people to be vocal and talk about issues, and people were victimised for it. Now we can have all this power ...through art, and have a voice; that's important not just for this generation, but for all the others that have fought before us.' Reko Rennie This distinctive diamond pattern was originally used by the Kamilaroi people to signpost their Country in northern NSW and southern Queensland. Rennie adapts these traditional designs using spray paint and neon colours, reflecting his experience of living and practising culture in a major capital city.
