Australian Aborginal Boy is a visceral and spiritually charged portrait that explores the moment a yound boy steps into cultural identity, responsibility and ancestral belonging. The work merges expressive brushstrokes layered mixed medium textures, and luminous gold elements to evoke the sacredness of initiation within Aboriginal culture and presence of elders. The work honours the strength, vulnerablity and spiritual youth as they inherit culture, story and belonging.
