Story of the artwork by Aunty Kerri Douglas: "When walking over Djandak (country) we see many different colours reflected in the bush. Plants of all types used by Djaara for thousands of years to sustain life, heal and grow. Walking across Djandak gives a sense of calm. In the shadow of two mountains, Liyanganyuk Banyul (Mount Alexander) and Dharren Gauwa (Mt Tarrengower), Dhelkaya Health has been formed for the communities to come together and journey across Djandak between the two mountains. The central piece shows us all coming together to provide the health services".
