From the waters that flow through Wiradjuri Ngurambang to the waters flowing through Dharug and Gundungurra Ngurra we are connected. Matriarchs Rising pays homage to the First Nations women gathered together on Dabee Country by Cementa in April 2021, to the poetry of Kirli Saunders, the beauty and power of Wiradjuri language and to the resilience of our Mothers, our Grandmothers and all of the Matriarchs that have come before us.
