Painting stories of native wisdom for all Australians.
Plant book is a Victorian initiative working with Aboriginal Australian First Nations communities to paint stories of traditional wisdom in an accessible way.
Our goal is to respectfully, and where appropriate, lower barriers and increase all Australian’s exposure to traditional, native wisdoms.
We seek to use technology to engage people in Aboriginal stories and lore, while they stand in the place, surrounded by the environment in which that knowledge is rooted.
Our hope is to support story telling that teaches something that’s not easily forgotten, imbibes people with hope and grows the value they see in being connected to the environment around them.
We acknowledge the traditional owners of the land, respect the passing on of knowledge of thousands of years and honor elders past, present and forthcoming.
