"STARS SWEETHEARTS" - Reconciliation Art Project supported by Roma Mitchell Reconciliation and Human Rights - Portrait of Ngarrindjeri Elder of Meningie entered in 2000 Archibald Prize by local artist Mary Kastanos - portrait made available below with artist's consent [from 138KB JPEG file "2000ArchibaldEntry-Portrait.jpg"] for exhibition on this site.
"STARS Sweethearts"
(Setting The Aboriginal Record Straight) is a portrait of Elder
Daisy M. Brown Rankine, Ngarrindjeri Elder of Meningie, South
Australia, Convenor: Lake Albert Ngori (pelican) Meiwi Sub-Committee.
Aunty Daisy is adorned with broaches: the golden pelican (her
natji: companion/totem); Meiwi* flag; International Year of the
Older Persons (a reminder to respect our elders); plus the
Reconciliation emblems. The background waters depict the River
Murray at Wellington, where her great grandparents lived. The
pelicans, seagulls and shag are some of the bird life of the area.
Mary Kastanos: Artist "As an Australian born Greek (my
mother's people were refugees from Smyrna, my father a Greek
Cypriot), I knew little about this land we call Australia, or its
Indigenous inhabitants. In understanding about caring and sharing
for each other and the land, I'm learning about reciprocity in
living."(Meiwi Flag in background of photograph) .
*Meiwi means: "Life to all Living Things, Creatures Great and Small" Elder Daisy M. Brown/Rankine.
