There's More To See Upstream
Albury Wodonga has far more to see beyond the mighty Murray river. A place rich in history, culture, arts and nature. A place where people come together - to meet; to holiday; to celebrate the strong community spirit that exists across the two cities. A place where First Nations peoples and their culture and connection to Country is respected and celebrated.
About Tamara Murray
Tamara May Murray, is a proud member of the Barkindtji and Muraroah tribe on her mother’s side, the Yorta Yorta and Dhudaroah tribes on her father’s side. She grew up on the Namatjira Mission in the small country town of Coomealla. For Tamara, her art is not simply paint on a canvas. It’s a story; it’s a place; it’s someone she has met along the way that has inspired her. It’s a deep connection to the land and her culture. It is a story that has been passed down. “I want my art to help break down barriers between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians. I hope I can help educate and contribute to a more peaceful world where our children can all walk as one, hand in hand, no matter their skin colour or cultural identity.”
