Holly Sanders, is a proud Bundjalung woman. Through her art, she aims to share her stories, culture, and Country in a contemporary way. The colours and patterns used in her work are inspired by her ancestral homeland, Bundjalung Country of Australia’s East Coast. Painting is important for her identity, well-being and expresses the way she understands and respects her culture, ancestors, and Country. Her art is a reflection of her connection to Country and used to develop a modern interpretation of her Aboriginal culture.

"I always look to Country - the land, sky and the sea - and use these images, memories, and stories to paint. The stories, colours, and patterns of Country at different times of the day and year influence heavily in my art."

"Painting keeps my culture strong, it is good for my health and well-being and it takes me back spiritually and historically to who I am. From a young age, I have been painting, my mother is an artist and always encouraged me to draw and paint. My love for art has been greatly influenced by my mother and watching her paint. I'm hoping to pass this love of painting onto my own jarjums (children)."
