Yowah, west of Cunnamulla, is particularly renowned for the Yowah Nut and ironstone matrix opal, with opal discoveries in the area dating back to the late nineteenth century.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAcross the painting, the rich earthy colours represent the layers of Country. Beneath what may first appear to be ordinary red and brown earth can lie flashes of extraordinary colour — blues, greens, pinks, purples and fiery tones revealed within opal. Queensland's opal country stretches through a vast belt of ancient sedimentary landscape, with precious opal occurring within ironstone and sandstone formations.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe colours flowing through the foreground represent this hidden beauty beneath Country. They are a reminder that something does not need to be visible on the surface for it to hold value, history or meaning.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe trees rising from the landscape represent life and resilience. Their roots reach into the same earth that holds the opal, connecting everything above the ground with what has formed beneath it over immense periods of time. They speak to the strength of Country and to the living relationship between the surface, the soil and the stories held below.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAbove Country stretches the brilliant night sky. The countless stars mirror the colours hidden beneath the earth — as though the land and sky are reflecting one another. What glitters overhead has its counterpart below the ground: one world visible to everyone, and another waiting to be discovered.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFor the people connected to this Country, however, the land is far more than what can be taken from beneath it. Country carries belonging, family, community, memory, story and connection. The opal therefore becomes a symbol within this artwork rather than simply a gemstone — something precious formed slowly within Country and carried forward through time.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIts hidden colour reflects the deeper layers of Country: the histories, memories, knowledge and connections that may not always be immediately visible, but remain present and powerful. Like opal, these treasures are revealed through time, attention and a willingness to look beyond the surface.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSpirit of the Opal Dreaming\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e celebrates the remarkable landscape of South-West Queensland and the treasures it holds.
