Student Achievement
01 February
We are excited to inform you that Class of 2022 Finn Maurik’s Unit 3 Artwork Jandamarrah has been accepted for the prestigious Next Gen 2023 exhibition at the Art Gallery of Ballarat.
In his Unit 3 folio, Finn explored the cultural suppression of Indigenous people in Australia. The title “Jandamarrah” refers to the Bunuba warrior Jandamarrah who turned against his European captors and fought a guerrilla campaign against White Settlers in the Kimberley region. The etching is a collection of landscapes within Bunuba territory that represent the ancient landscapes and its untouched quality free from European destruction.
You can view Finn’s work now, virtually, as part of the 2022 Year 12 Visual Arts & Technology exhibit https://www.damascus.vic.edu.au/2022-Visual-Arts-Virtual-Tour/
Congratulations Finn!
