Carleen Eades is a Ballardong/Koreng artist and together with her grand daughter, 13-year-old Ballardong/Koreng Se’anna Winmar they create collaborative paintings. Se’anna works under the guidance of her grandmother, to paint Aboriginal contemporary paintings of stories passed down from her family. Carleen has encouraged Se’anna to use her artistic skills in a joint effort to speak about culture and traditions in the form of beautiful artworks.
“We decided to paint about our Boodjar, our Country,” Se’anna and Carleen said. “We painted the landforms and have symbolised water in most of our paintings because it’s so important to our land, the animals and our survival.”
