It also symbolises the connections we share with our community, friends and family. In celebration of our First Nations people and children, this collection was designed to help us learn, understand, appreciate and respect the cultural traditions and knowledge that has been passed down for thousands of years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIt is important to note that the symbols and stories shared are unique to Daisy Hill, and her own interpretations and do not represent all First Nations people. All Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultural groups have different perspectives, interpretations and understandings of stories and knowledge passed down to them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout the Artist\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDaisy Hill is an Aboriginal artist and proud descendant of the Muruwari people from NW NSW, currently living on Yugambeh Country (Gold Coast). Daisy's art style can be described as modern and contemporary. She paints intuitively, the same way her ancestors did. Daisy feels an overwhelming connectedness to her thoughts, feelings and spirit when she paints. She describes the painting process as being deeply spiritual and meditative. Daisy has a passion to tell stories and strives to keep the traditions of her people alive. “It is a way for me to feel connected to the Motherland - the trees, water, sand, sun, earth and animals. I paint to convey the beauty I see in all things and to express my gratitude and acknowledge the Country I am walking, living and breathing. I feel so grateful that people want to invest in me and my culture,” says Daisy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eInstagram: @daisy_in_dots\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Australian Teaching Aids","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53529486754065,"sku":"BB100","price":34.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0786\/7786\/8817\/files\/BB100.jpg?v=1778496308","url":"https:\/\/www.teachersuperstore.com.au\/products\/country-connections-calendar-bulletin-board-set","provider":"Teacher Superstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
