Redfern; End Of Days is a series of plein air paintings depicting the life of the Redfern Aboriginal Tent Embassy, a protest movement seeking Aboriginal housing on Redfern’s iconic ‘Block’. Beginning in mid 2014, the embassy was dismantled fifteen months later.
Featuring works in oil on linen painted in situ during regular visits to ‘The Block’, this series celebrates daily life at the camp, and culminates in a work which depicts a protest march and rally at N.S.W. Parliament House in Sydney.

There are a number of significant dates and events for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. These include:
Survival Day - January 26
January 26 is a significant date for all Australians but for varying reasons - it is Australia Day, Survival Day and also sometimes referred to as Invasion Day. Some see it as a celebration, but for many Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people it is a day of mourning. More information on the meaning of January 26 for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples visit Creative Spirits.
Apology Day - February 13
On 13 February 2008 Prime Minister Kevin Rudd moved a Motion of Apology to Australia’s Indigenous Peoples in the House of Representatives apologising for past laws, policies and practices that devastated Australia’s First Nations Peoples – in particular members of the Stolen Generations.

National Sorry Day - May 26
National Sorry Day is an annual day of commemoration and remembrance of all those who have been impacted by the government policies of forcible removal that have resulted in the Stolen Generations. For more information visit the Bringing Them Home WA and australia.gov.au.
In 1998, Western Australian Kerry Fletcher wrote the Sorry Song on behalf of all of us whose hearts ache when we think of the pain those children and communities suffered and the pain which they still endure today.
Visit www.sorrysong.com.au to view the lyrics, download the sheet music or watch/listen to the full version of this song.
1967 Referendum - May 27
The 1967 referendum made history: Australians voted overwhelmingly to amend the constitution to include Aboriginal people in the census and allow the Commonwealth to create laws for Aboriginal people. As a result of the political climate, this referendum saw the highest YES vote ever recorded in a Federal referendum, with 90.77 per cent voting for change. For more information visit Creative Spirits and the National Archives of Australia.
National Reconciliation Week - May 27 - June 03
National Reconciliation Week is celebrated across Australia each year. The dates commemorate two significant milestones in the reconciliation journey - the anniversaries of the successful referendum and the High Court Mabo decision.
The week is a time for all Australians to learn about our shared histories, cultures and achievements and to explore how each of us can join the national reconciliation effort. May 27 marks the anniversary of Australia’s most successful referendum and a defining event in our nation’s history. The 1967 referendum saw over 90 per cent of Australians vote to give the Commonwealth the power to make laws for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and recognise them in the national census.
Mabo Day - June 03
On 3 June, 1992, the High Court of Australia delivered its landmark Mabo decision which legally recognised that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples have a special relationship to the land that existed prior to colonalisation and still exists today. This recognition paved the way for land rights called Native Title. 2012 marked the 20th anniversary of the Mabo decision. Visit AIATSIS for more information.
