Our connection to Country embodies more than merely the physical realm, it also allows us to connect spiritually. It is this spirituality that is often spoken of in Western terms as ‘dreaming’. To me, growing up in an urban city, this complex spiritual understanding was very limited. It is only now as an adult, a mother and woman living in regional Australia, without all the clutter and noise of a city, that I have begun to understand, to lean into this way of being and knowing.

It is this wisdom of the cycles, this knowing of place that kicked off this series, a study of our great salt lakes, as seen by a bird soaring through the sky, dreaming of our big Countries.
