On display across the Parliament's Reconciliation Wall until 25 May 2023, Wabu is a collection of artworks from Gamilaroi Ularoi artist Lakkari Pitt.
"Wabu is a series of original artworks inspired by the stories that my Baagii (Nan) and her side of the family have passed down to my Guni (Mum), about living on the Namoi river in Walgett," Lakkari says.
"My Baagii often told stories of how much she enjoyed growing up on Namoi with her sisters, brothers and family. The colour palette and imagery in the artworks have been directly inspired by the gums, foliage and patterns of gali (water), and also how being by the river makes us feel."
'Wabu' means 'river bend' in Gamilaroi language.
