Wiradjuri Murray Darling
By contemporary indigenous artist Naomi Grant.
The Murray Darling Basin in eastern Australia is one of the most severely impacted and damaged regions due to climate change. The acrylic on canvas painting focuses on a spiral design that changes as areas of land are eroded due to the effects of climate change.
This painting is one of just 10 in the world chosen to be featured at the United Nations Climate Change Conference in Poland in 2008 (COP14).
