This journal was created in collaboration with First Nations artist Lucy Simpson. The design ‘Yarrin’ was used for a mural outside the Corban & Blair building with the help of mural painter Meg Minkley and the Inner West Council. The mural was commissioned through the Perfect Match program by the Inner West Council, recognizing the importance of preserving and celebrating the unique stories embedded in the city’s landscapes. 

This artwork incorporates local narratives of water, time, memory, and sites of convergence, and draws inspiration from the story of Long Cove Creek in Gadigal (known today as Hawthorne Canal) to pay homage to the local ecology and our many forgotten waterways.
