Bowers of Blue

project description

Bowers of Blue by Naomi Crew is a vibrant celebration of the natural world, inspired by the beauty and wonder of Australia’s birdlife. Through a collection of artworks and reflections, Naomi captures the personality, charm, and spirit of local bird species with her signature use of bold colours, playful shapes, and joyful detail. Rooted in her deep connection to the Blue Mountains and its unique environment, Naomi’s work resonates with both art lovers and nature enthusiasts alike. Whether displayed on the coffee table, gifted to a friend, or explored for personal inspiration, Bowers of Blue is a book that uplifts, delights, and sparks a renewed appreciation for the feathered treasures that surround us.

ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF NGURRA

The City of the Blue Mountains is located within the Ngurra (Country) of the Dharug and Gundungurra peoples. MTNS MADE recognises that Dharug and Gundungurra Traditional Owners have a continuous and deep connection to their Country and that this is of great cultural significance to Aboriginal people, both locally and in the region. For Dharug and Gundungurra People, Ngurra takes in everything within the physical, cultural and spiritual landscape – landforms, waters, air, trees, rocks, plants, animals, foods, medicines, minerals, stories and special places. It includes cultural practice, kinship, knowledge, songs, stories and art, as well as spiritual beings, and people: past, present and future. Blue Mountains City Council pays respect to Elders past and present while recognising the strength, capacity and resilience of past and present Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in the Blue Mountains region.
