A united sector supporting expectant and new parents during what will be one of the most vulnerable times in their life.

Togetherness, always

Artwork by Rheanna Lotter

“With this artwork, I wanted to create a meeting place, representing family and connection. The dots around the shape hold our story together, with the symbols of the sun, moon and stars, representing night and day to demonstrate the importance of togetherness, always.”

Rheanna Lotter is a proud Yuin woman and founder of Ngandabaa (Yun-Da-Baa; named after her grandfather Keith Thorne). Growing up in Willow Vale in the NSW Southern Highlands, Rheanna now lives and works in Western Sydney.

She has supported many companies and clients across Australia to showcase modern and contemporary Aboriginal Art, sharing culture in unique ways and creating artworks for all Australians to enjoy.
