Eggs (Red)

This painting is a contempory style representation of the eggs of Native Australian animals. I used red to paint the egg-like shapes with light pink splatter for detail and texture. I then continued the peice with a cool toned colour palette to illustrate the lines and curves around the eggs symbolising a protective force around Native Wildlife. This painting shares the message of the importance of protecting our native animals when they are young, as to also protect our culture and connection to country.

Biography:

Gifted the name Muguy, meaning constant in her traditional language, Mya is always seeking to further her cultural knowledge.

 

Mya was born and raised in Greater Shepparton and holds a deep respect for the Country of the Yorta Yorta and Bangerang peoples as it carries many of her childhood memories.

 

As a Dulguburra Yidinji woman, she has a strong connection to her mother’s Country, the rainforest in and around the crater lakes of the tablelands, inland of Gimuy (Cairns).

A contemporary artist across various mediums, Mya enjoys experimenting with textures and colours in reflecting her experiences and the stories her mother tells her of ‘home.’
