Water and Country

By NANI Creative - Kevin Wilson
Digital Design 2021
The waterways sustain life throughout our country, providing food and water to the people living on and off this land. This design is the Derbarl Yerrigan and highlights the 5 main waterways that cover the Eastern Metropolitan Region. These include Helena River, Woodbridge and Blackadder creek, Jane Brook, Susannah Brook and Wooroloo Brook. The greens represent the water, life and animals and the ochre and browns represent the country and land.
