Charlie and I strongly feel that voting YES to the Voice is the first step in creating a unified future for Australia. Division is not the product of this referendum. It is endemic and has existed for far too long.
If you are uncertain about how to vote we ask you to please think further and to listen.
We live here in Alice Springs/ Mparntwe, we hear loud and clear that Jacinta Price does not represent the Aboriginal people of this country.
Do not be fooled by her!
We ask you to please think again and vote YES for unity and racial equality.

Taking the opportunity to do some advocacy for the Voice to Parliament via our local Advocate Art Award here in Mparntwe, Alice Springs. Prizes went to other worthy work but I feel pleased to have found my own voice through the medium of wax Batik using rust and tannin as the dye.
YES for the Voice

Last weekend at Birthday Waterhole, a favourite place deep in the ranges. An algae bloom on the edge of the waterhole. Identified by an algae specialist as Botryococcus, from a sample we bought home. It was such a vivid orange it looked ‘unatural’ in the landscape, like something a careless camper might have released. Is good to know we can love it! Unlike all the toilet paper scattered around and ugly stone fire rings people leave behind. Out here you don’t need a ring of stones, (do you ever?) you just dig a shallow hole for your fire and then fill it in when you leave so all the ash and charcoal doesn’t blow around, turning the pristine sand grey and dirty. Leave only footprints or in the case for this remote location, tyre tracks….. unfortunately.
