Description
Belonging is a First Nations poetic reflection on Country and the everlasting ties that bind us. A lyrical narrative full of the eternal interconnectedness of our families: land, water, sky, earth, space, time, story and language.
Belonging shows us how to be here, to listen, and to care for connections between people and place. It shows we must respect what came before: from Creation to terra nullius, to now, a history and a way of being that shows us how to belong.
