About the Artist
Saretta is an Aboriginal woman from the Wonaruah Nation of the Upper Hunter Valley, New South Wales and draws her artistic inspiration from traditional rock carvings from sites located throughout Mt Yengo National Park, NSW.  Saretta reflects this within her artworks with an added contemporary flair which is intriguing to the viewer inviting them to savour, connect and learn more about this rich and alive culture of Aboriginal Australia.  Saretta uses a method developed over 15 years using sand to recreate the rock surface including engravements of ancient Australian symbols that bring together family, life experiences and nature's beauty, evoking emotion while enhancing connection to spirit and country.
