Ngeerrang and Ngart (Mothers and Daughters)
FIONA CLARKE AND TRISH MCKEAN
Ngeerrang and Ngart (Mothers and Daughters) was designed and created by Kirrae Whurrong artists Fiona Clarke and Trish McKean who collaborated with children at the South Warrnambool Kindergarten and with indigenous preschool educator Bronwyn Ferguson.
Fiona said that her father (the late Banjo Clarke) used to say "Children will colour your world".
The mural was funded via Council’s Community Development Fund and funding from the playground renewal program.
The community engagement component of this project was funded by the Australian Government’s Regional Arts Fund, provided through Regional Arts Australia and administered by Regional Arts Victoria.
Generous in-kind support was provided by the Gunditjmara Aboriginal Co-Operative, Amazon Printing, Scope Galleries, Hammonds Paints, Warrnambool Art Gallery and the South Warrnambool Kindergarten Parent Committee.
