The painting’s story is: we hunt the food that lives on this country as our ancestors did in the past and give thanks to the food and return what we can’t take, and the Spirit goes back to the land.

Including a piece about reconnecting to family and another about the lands of the Namoi River People.

This is an exciting initiative, and, as older Aboriginal men, we are genuinely committed to this. We understand suffering and great loss.

Justice should be upheld for all of those who seek legal support, particularly those from First Nations communities.

Including a piece about "Cave Dreaming" and another about perspective.

We have been inspired to talk about the legal system that makes us the most incarcerated culture in this country.

This is not the journey I planned. I didn’t wake up one day and say, ‘I want to go to prison and become an artist. I better start applying to all the different gangs and drug dealers and see who is hiring.’ No, that’s not how it happened. In fact, the road was a lot darker, violent and overall ruthless.

Including a piece about moving forward and another about seasons in Northern Australia.

My name is Johnathan Binge and I’m Gamilaraay/Gamilaroi, Dunghutti and Gumbaynggyirr. I was born in Moree, that’s my country, but currently living in Naarm now. I’m just a black fella moving through the motions!

Donny is a proud Worimi man and likes spending his time doing dot art. Donny completed this painting while incarcerated at Borallon Training & Correction Centre in Queensland.
