Morning Sunrise celebrates the beginning of a new day through the native flora and birdlife of the Dandenong Ranges. The Australian honeyeater, often one of the first birds heard at dawn, represents renewal, hope, and the quiet rhythm of nature that connects the local community.
Emerging from the landscape is a radiant sun figure, inspired by Indigenous cultures as the long-standing caretakers of Country. Her gaze is intentionally larger than life, inviting viewers into a moment of reflection. She asks us to consider our relationship with Australia—what we receive from this land, what we contribute to it, and how we can move forward together with greater respect, understanding, and connection.
Originally created as a hand-painted 2.5 × 3.5 metre public mural commissioned for the Moving Forward Together project in Upwey, this artwork is now available as a professionally reproduced A3 landscape print on premium 300gsm archival paper, preserving the richness, detail, and presence of the original work.
