Do you know the history of the land you walk, of who called this home before you?

One of the most celebrated artists of her generation, Waanyi woman Judy Watson has spent her long and illustrious career unearthing all she can about her ancestral Country and culture and encouraging others to do the same. In this episode, sat barefoot atop a canvas in her large leaky Yeronga studio, Judy shares tales about a trip to Boodjamulla (Lawn Hill) with her family in 1990. It was a trip that changed her, setting her on a path to discover as much as she could about her Aboriginal past and lay bare the shared histories that have led to where we are now.
