Jackie Craigie
Jackie is an Eastern Arrernte woman with family connections in the norther Territory and Qld. She lives in Perth with her husband a Noongar man from WA. She has always had an interest in art and started putting artwork on canvas in late 2014. Jackie’s creativity and interest has come from watching and learning from her Aunty.
My grandmother was a wonderful story teller, strong in her culture, connection and identity and she would always share this information to make sure we understood our Aboriginal history and connection to families and country. My grandparents spent quite a lot of time taking us kids (the grandchildren) out bush learning to hunt, collect bush foods, medicines and show us how to survive in the bush.
