A highly designed, colourful picture book aimed at celebrating traditional names of well-known Australian places such as Gadigal (Sydney) and Lunawuni (Bruny Island), from a popular breakthrough Indigenous artist.

I wanted to travel this place to hear some of its old stories ... to learn.

Laugh joyfully like a kookaburra in Canberra.

Watch your toes turn red in Rubibi.

And walk soft under the bunya pines in Meeanjin.

From Gudanji/Wakaja artist Ryhia Dank comes Learning Country, a vibrant and contemporary picture book that celebrates the traditional names of well-known Australian places.

Ryhia Dank

Ryhia Dank is a Gudanji/Wakajal artist who grew up in a remote community in the Northern Territory and now lives in modern Australia. Her painting is storywork; Gudanji/Wakaja people tell stories through pattern and design. She calls her storying Nardurna, which means 'woman', and refers to her link with the Gudanji story about how three women came from the ocean near Ngukurr in the Gulf of Carpentaria to create their place, the hills and fresh water Country.
