More than One Story, by Michelle Kerrin

Connection

In support of National Reconciliation Week 2022, and in a collaboration with Indigenous artist Michelle Kerrin A.G. Coombs have featured Michelle’s artwork in our vehicle livery as a visual acknowledgment of our connection to Australia’s indigenous culture and their community.

National Reconciliation Week is a focused time for all Australians to learn about our shared histories, cultures, and achievements.

A.G. Coombs continues to embrace our indigenous community and their cultures through our actions and community engagement and through our Reconciliation Action Plan is working towards a reconciled Australia.

The Artist: Michelle Kerrin

A proud Arrernte and Luritja woman from the Northern Territory Michelle’s artwork not only speaks to her personal experiences but intertwines with her work and passion working with young mob in community. Alongside her role as an artist, Michelle currently works with the Michael Long Centre, a space for Aboriginal youth leadership.

The Artwork: More than One Story

About connection and growth, the artwork speaks to the lands and communities coming together, where the people come to meet, trade and grow with one another. This connection is key to the success of its peoples, the ground you walk on and the spirits that have come before you. These pathways have always been here, they are rooted in the ground. It’s now time for the next mob to travel on them. They are sacred.

The story of A.G Coombs is reflected in this piece. It tells the stories of all the spirits and souls that live, breath and work in these spaces. Everyone far and wide, but all connected. It’s for the people, by the people. The pathways have always been there but are always growing.
