‘The Future We Grow Together’
Commissioned artwork for Sharesies Australia.
STORY:
’The Future We Grow Together’ is a story that first and foremost acknowledges our beautiful Country, our land and our skies, where we have the privilege of living, working and connecting.
The story flows down from the top of the artwork, where the yellow has many meanings (the life-giving sun, strength and hope, our Creator and ancestors’ wisdom, guidance, knowledge) and connects all of us inclusively, touching every home (represented in the ‘arches’ at either side of the artwork).
The pineapple in the middle represents Sharesies and the pink semi-circle in the centre represents Sharesies’ corporate journey of growth (represented by the layers of pink, made up of the many people, past and present, who work together and are united by the Sharesies mission).
The circle right in the middle of the artwork (below the main pineapple) is the seed planted by Sharesies which has flourished into a thriving network. As the roots reach out they become a part of diverse communities, families and individuals all across the land, partnering and collaborating to create a ripple of growth for generations to come. The roots continue to grow and reach out in search of new opportunities to collaborate and share, as the impact continues to grow and ripple out into the future.
