The Journey from '67: Reconciliation

Reconciliation by Edna Watson

Edna Watson is a Dharug elder whose paintings have been recognised in Australia and overseas.
In this work, Edna expresses the various groups who have come to Australia -

with the original Aboriginal people in the centre of the circle of reconciliation.

Reconciling hands point inwards and outwards.
Earth colours dominate with the central circle showing a broken earth,

symbolic of the current drought and the unfinished process of reconciliation.
