Walking in Two Worlds
Pastel on paper

This piece speaks to the experience of walking between two worlds — the fast-paced expectations of modern life and the deep, steady rhythm of Country.

The softness of the pastels is intentional. The lighter tones are not an absence, but a presence — a reminder that identity is not defined by how dark or visible something appears on the surface. Culture, connection, and belonging live far deeper than colour.

For many Aboriginal women, this journey is layered. Moving through spaces where we are sometimes seen, sometimes questioned, and sometimes misunderstood — yet always carrying strength, knowledge, and quiet resilience.

The pathways in this piece do not clash; they coexist. They show that walking in two worlds is not about choosing one over the other, but about holding both with balance, respect, and truth.

This work is a reflection of that lived experience — gentle in appearance, but strong in story.
