Luina- The Blue Wren

This piece represents the Tasmanian Aboriginal story of Dromerdeene who, while seeking reconciliation with his brother Moihernee, is attacked by Moihernee's beasts. A tiny grey bird
valiantly tries to protect Dromerdeene but is thrown against a tree. A bright star rescues Dromerdeene and, in a display of gratitude, bestows upon the grey bird unique attributes including bright black eyes, a fan of feathers, and a beautiful blue crown that symbolises courage and freedom.
