These hand painted Emu eggs sit cradled in a bed of Emu feathers, symbolising the deep and unbreakable connection between land, life and spirit. The intricate patterns painted onto the Emu eggs reflects the winding paths of country, rivers, songlines and the stories carried through generations. These pieces are a tribute to the strength of our Ancestors, the beauty of our lands and the stories that live on through us.
