This painting depicts a burning flame, yarning circles, and the aboriginal flag. This is symbolism of the power of aboriginal culture and community. The flame represents the ongoing strength and power of our ancestors, elders, communities, and culture. The flame also ties in with this year’s NAIDOC week theme, “keep the fire burning black loud and proud”. The fire produces smoke of varying shapes such as yarning circles. These circles represent community and future.
