Stories and history, flora, fauna, country. These are the things that make up the beautiful Top End of the Northern Territory. Born into these surrounds were the two artists who bring you, Country: Through the Eyes of Nature. Jayde Hopkins from the Gurindji and Woolwonga people, narrates her connection to the land and nature through traditional dot painting with a focus on radiance of colour. Arlya Tuckey illustrates the natural land, sea and sky, and flora and fauna with a focus on the scientific world as a natural history illustrator. 


Share in our stories, our connection to nature, our country.
