From the Artist
Warami N’Allowah Mittigar ... (Hello, you are welcome here, my friend). I am a proud descendent of both the Darug & Dharawal people of the Sydney coastal region in Australia where I was born and reared and maintain my family connections. The beautiful World Heritage area of the Blue Mountains, NSW community is where I currently live with my husband & twin sons.
My artwork celebrates the relationships held between people, place, emotion & spirituality. My passion for art and the creative process is to encourage personal & collective journeys of healing. My aim is to facilitate better understanding of identity, wellbeing & connectedness to each other and to our natural world through one’s heart.
“Taking time to look, listen and learn together within our natural world strengthened our connection: our sense of responsibility to each other and to our environment. Aboriginal culture is continuous, it does not fade away; it does not end. To understand the future we must understand the past.”
