Antigone Marchbank

The meaning of my artwork is based on the Close the Gap moment.
The two walls represent the gap and the girl in the middle is trying to
pull the walls together. The sentences stringing the walls together are
all Aboriginal quotes or sayings. The pile of books she is standing on represents Aboriginal education growing there for closing the gap. The sentences other meaning is that we should listen to the Aboriginal people, rather than just telling them what to do.
