When making sculpture, out of meadow grass and wool it’s very relaxing, the mind goes quiet and time disappears. When people sit down to create together, especially families, it’s like a regrouping, with everyone working towards the same goal. Families arrive and kids are screaming, but within ten minutes of sitting down and working together everyone is calm and people are learning from each other. For children it’s great for them to develop their fine motor skills, while for parents it’s a way to learn from their children and each other. When the parents relax, the koorlungah, the kids can relax too. I guess this is what people call mindfulness, when you’re working on something, but making a new space together. For Aboriginal peoples, these spaces are normal, they are everyday spaces where we yarn, where we learn and where we share.
