The Ancestor Being

The Ancestor Being is a personal exploration of Aboriginal spirituality across New South Wales, seeking to develop a deeper understanding of the relationship between ancestral beings, Creation stories, Country and cultural wisdom. Through visiting Aboriginal rock art sites, sacred landscapes, cultural centres and places of historical significance, the project documents my experiences, discoveries and reflections. It also seeks opportunities to learn from Aboriginal communities and Traditional Knowledge Holders, respecting the diversity of Aboriginal spiritual traditions and the cultural boundaries surrounding sacred knowledge. Ultimately, The Ancestor Being aims to foster a greater appreciation of the spiritual heritage of Australia's First Peoples and their enduring connection to Country.
