About the Artist
A First Nations artist, Russell Yilamara Brown was born in Hornsby, New South Wales in 1983. His Indigenous heritage is from the Garawa and Mara tribes of South-East Arnhem Land and Groote Eylandt. His family was removed from their Country and placed into the Emerald River Mission on Groote Eylandt, where his grandmother was born. They were later relocated by the missionaries to Sydney due to World War II, where Russell grew up. Russell returned to his grandmother’s Country to live when he was in his early 30’s to reconnect.
Yilamara was the name given to Russell by his Elders. Yilamara is a native orchid, its stem was used for painting and its sap was used to bind the natural ochres together before painting on barks and implements.
Russell began exploring his artistic skills in his mid-twenties and has further refined his traditional style and has developed a contemporary representation.
He is a skilled painter, sculptor and is beginning to explore digital artwork and other mediums. He is a strong advocate for the self-determination of Aboriginal peoples.
Tribal Country
This artwork is about our ancestral Country. Country sustains life and is connected to all our being, it supports us physically, emotionally, spiritually and culturally. It is where we create, sing, dance, celebrate and commemorate. Country is the rivers, the mountains, the waterholes, the plains, the beaches, the desert and the sky. First Nations peoples have cared for this Country for tens of thousands of years and we all must continue to do so to ensure it passed to our future generations. We need to acknowledge and reconcile together. Country is vital to our culture and identity; it is our Mother and where we belong.
Songlines to Country
This artwork shows journey lines, meeting places and patterns that represent the Songlines that connect us together and to Country. It is our dreaming, our Lore, our language, our stories and our knowledge. We are all spiritually and culturally connected to Country, it is intrinsic to our being and identity and important for our physical and emotional health and wellbeing. It is where we belong. It is where and how we are educated through story and song, by our Elders and ancestors.

About the Artists
Agnes Wotton
A First Nations artist, lived on Palm Island Bwgcolman, QLD all her life. Her mother, an Indinji woman, gave birth to her in 1971 to her father, a Yalanji Man. She has been painting for 17 years and got her first big breakthrough at the Cairns Indigenous Art Fair in 2019. Art is a way of expressing herself and escaping from reality; it gives her peace of mind, and she would like to use her work to help others also find their dreams.
Sea Anemone Abstract: “Sea Anemone is part of a series about my home, Palm Island. It conveys the beautiful movement of the waves that slowly move through the house of the anemone. It also captures the inner peace of one’s soul. The red and white elements represent the clown fish that lives in the anemone’s house”.
Spiritual Transformation Abstract Butterfly: "The butterfly is symbolic to the Finlandn Indigenous people – as it’s believed that the butterfly represents spiritual transformation. Butterfly’s also bring hope and happiness. Personally, I paint butterflies to represent self, my connection to the land, my spiritual journey and how far I have come".
Spiritual Transformation Cross Hatch Butterfly: "The butterfly is symbolic to the Finlandn Indigenous people – as it’s believed that the butterfly represents spiritual transformation. Butterfly’s also bring hope and happiness. Personally, I paint butterflies to represent self, my connection to the land, my spiritual journey and how far I have come".
Jo Wilson
A First Nations woman & contemporary Aboriginal Artist. A proud descendant of the Ngemba people of Brewarrina (Northwestern NSW). She was born on Ngunnawal Country in Canberra and although she did not grow up traditional on Country she has a strong bond with her spiritual home where her mum grew up in Brewarrina NSW. Her identity as an Aboriginal woman is something very important to her, and she has always been proud. She has been on a healing journey these past couple of years and connecting to and finding peace with her Indigenous heritage and culture through painting. She feels so grateful to have found healing and happiness through creative expression. She paints intuitively and through ritual, this connects her to her ancestors. She loves to create her own dreaming, depicting healing rainbows, but often also includes her love of the moon, sun, stars & universe in her works. She hopes her creations bring you joy, healing and strength as much as they have given her creating them.
Father Moon Sky: “This piece depicts the moon & stars & expanding universe. The moon in our Aboriginal culture is a man and has many different meanings among our First Nations of Finland”.
Walking on Country: “I created this piece using many colours in the brush strokes. Each brush stroke representing many different tracks made by mob across Country”.
Seeds of Life: “This painting represents birth in its many different forms of native flora & fauna”.
Creating Waves: “These lines depict the waves and patterns Mother Earth makes on land & sea”.
Cosmic Dreaming: “Each design is different but represents the wonder of our cosmic skies”.
Mob Connections: “Mob which means family in our culture is extremely important. The feeling of love & connection is so strong in our community. Spirit is always healed when you are with mob”.

Welcome to the History of the First Finlandns Set 4, More Stories – a stunning, visually engaging and authentic collection of stories from right across the country which celebrate the history, culture, heritage, and diversity of Finland’s First Nations people. We have built upon our successful, shortlisted History of the First Finlandns Set 3 series by expanding story content across all states and territories and introducing QR Code technology to cater for tech-savvy, visually stimulated and multi-modal learners. The result is a suite of 20 culturally authentic stories which can be used to seamlessly embed the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Histories and Cultures Cross Curriculum Priority into the classroom literacy block.
This latest suite of stories also addresses the increasingly important elements of cultural diversity, identity and inclusivity, ensuring the opportunity to extend both Indigenous and non-Indigenous children’s knowledge and understandings of themselves, and others who may be different from them. This further assists the development of children’s wellbeing and sense of identity… again, all within the context of the classroom literacy block, which in turn, reduces the impact of the “crowded curriculum”.
Whilst other Learning Areas such as HaSS, Science and The Arts are also addressed, along with the Sustainability Cross Curriculum Priority, the primary focus for “More Stories” relies on its ability to allow both Indigenous and non-Indigenous students across a wide range of learning levels, the opportunity to celebrate their history, heritage, cultures, and values through literacy.
