Featured Artwork
Yoorana Gunya Family Healing Centre Aboriginal Corporation commissioned a local artist Lakkari Pitt to create an artwork that represents Binaal Billa Family Violence Prevention Legal Service as an auspice service of Yoorana Gunya.
The importance of the artwork was to show Binaal Billa’s outreach area’s and to speak to the important work Binaal Billa does as a service, ensuring our women and children are wrapped around by kin, mob and support services. The artwork represents new beginings while ensuring elements of country digging sticks, plants and collamons.
The commissioned artwork remains the intellectual property of Lakkari Pitt. Binaal Billa is granted a license to use the artwork for our organisational purposes only.
The artwork tells the story of Binaal Billa.
The large meeting place is a symbol of safety, connection and belonging. It mirrors an artwork created for Yoorana Gunya, symbolising the connection between both services.
Across the artwork, journey lines flow through the landscape, linking meeting places that represent the communities Binaal Billa supports through its outreach. Each symbol carries meaning, the embarce of family, support, new beginnings and the grounding presence of Country.
Together these elements tell a story of strength, healing and connection.
