Losing Myself, Oil on Paper, 78x113 cm
As an aboriginal with white skin, I often struggle to show others where I fit amongst my heritage as my looks are often clashing with the pre conceived notion of what it means to be an indigenous Australian. My work shows my embracing of my culture by using the colours of the earth to create a self-portrait using locally sourced pigments.
