To My Country

This piece tells the story of my journey back to Country. It is from the time when I was a child, mostly travelling back in spring and summer at night after my parents worked, seeing the Country illuminated through the lights beaming from the front of the car. It was such a magical time as a kid and the landscape was much fuller and denser than it is travelling back there now. Following rivers, bending around mountains and travelling under the guidance of my Ancestors to my Grandmother’s Country to Aunty June’s house. Aunty June, my Grandmother’s sister, is a huge inspiration for me and the work I do both in my arts and working in the community as an IEO. Aunties’ home feels like home.

To My Country

Leah Brideson

I am Leah. I am an Aboriginal woman born in Canberra, ACT. My mob are Kamilaroi from my Grandmothers country in the Gunnedah region. I am a self-taught Contemporary Aboriginal Artist and began painting at a very young age. I have been painting in a professional capacity for over 7 years.

"Art is such an important platform to share my culture with the wider community. My art is like a 'visual yarn', people really connect with the stories and meaning behind the work".

A great deal of my artistic vision and inspiration comes from the changing landscapes in my home town, on country and from my journeys to ocean country and beyond. I use layers of fine dotting, line work, colour gradients, Aboriginal symbolism and my signature style of 'cracked earth' landscape throughout my paintings. Kamilaroi country is often dry and cracked, but rich and deep in history, culture and story as represented by the space in between the cracked earth. I pay great attention to detail, natural patterns, light, shade and texture in the landscape.

My paintings often work between two perspectives; landscape and birds-eye view. Through a birds-eye view, I generally map the journeys in which I take, along with my ancestral and cultural ties. As I learn more about my culture and discover my ancestors’ footprints in the landscape, I feel the urge to paint my story, my sense of place.
