Esplanart

Installed as part of the Esplanart Exhibition, this sculpture is called Japun Miju (Eel Country). This piece represents Wayne’s cultural ties to the land, showing the importance of freshwater rivers and lakes as a major food source for his grandparents people, of both the Yidinji and Ngadjon Tribes, a tradition that continues today with him and his parents.

The Welcome to Millaa Millaa sign that is now in the Lions Park in the Main Street of Millaa Millaa is truly a distinctive, creative asset, depicting our local fauna in a welcoming way to our visitors. I watch as many children touch the sign to feel the dimensions that Wayne has put into the animals. An amazing piece of art.
