Yued refers to the Noongar language north of Perth. The Yued region is where my ancestors were born, including myself in the town of Moora, 170km North East of Perth..
This work is a celebration and acknowledgment of country. First Nations people have thrived and lived sustainably with the land we call Australia for more than 60,000 years.
This artwork depicts being out on Country, and feeling the breeze, smelling the air, walking bare-footed on the sandy beaches.. It connects to your experiences on Noongar country and reminds you that you can always find connection by walking on Country.

Artist Bio

She is also a Member of Indigenous Art Code proudly protecting artists and buyer from cultural appropriation. Jessica is wanting to create contemporary Aboriginal art as a way to create awareness of First Nations people and work towards healing and closing the gap. β€οΈππ€
Jessica is a proud Noongar living on Yued land who first started painting after feeling an urge to learn more about her Aboriginal culture after moving back to her home town of Moora, Western Australia with her partner and 2 children after 12 years of living in Perth.
Upon having weekly visits with her nana and wanting to know more about her culture and background, she felt inspired to create art as a way of feeling connected to her culture which has mostly been lost due to her great grandfather being part of the stolen generation, being assimilated into a white society and forced to reject his Aboriginal culture.
Enjoy her beautiful art!
