Gogo Wundu (Water Forest Country)
Deep in the heart of the Gulf Savannah region is an outback oasis, created by a series of geological processes situated on Ewamian Country. Sand and mud sediment was deposited and compressed forming the multiple layers of the Hampstead Sandstone. Over many years’ torrential rain and wet seasons formed fractures, creating deep gorges, springs and seepages to create our famous Cobbold Gorge. From above these sandstone formations occupy an area of roughly 80 square kilometers with spectacular 9 metre tall cliffs with an emerging forest below.
ARTIST:
Jedess Hudson is a descendent from the Ewamian and Western Yalangi clans of Far North Queensland. As an emerging artist she creates and explores traditional stories with a contemporary perspective. Her Aboriginality is a continuous source of inspiration, as she draws deeply on this throughout her creative journey. Her heritage has taught her to analyse and appreciate the surroundings she finds herself in, especially on country. Nature, wildlife and bush tucker are all aspects that are incorporated into her artwork.
