Fiona Clarke is an Aboriginal artist of the Kirrae Whurrong of Western Victoria. Her work focuses on the land and environment from an Aboriginal perspective. She explores elements such as the rivers, waterways, traditional tucker, fishing through the wisdom and inspiration passed on by her elders, particularly her father Banjo Clarke (dec) who was fortunate to have been told by his Elders the important matters of life, land, plants and animals and the wisdom of Aboriginal culture.
Ken McKean is a non-Aboriginal artist and the husband of Fiona. Ken’s focus for this exhibition is on his and Fiona’s local adopted environment. Moving to Sunshine from Warrnambool in September 2017 Ken and Fiona live near to Kororoit Creek. The beauty of this urban creek has inspired Ken to create artworks about this waterway in the hope of further inspiring locals to continue the wonderful work they have done to reinvigorate this beautiful waterway and its banks over the last 16 years.
