Charmaine Davis

Charmaine Davis is a proud Gumbaynggir and Bundjalung artist based in Queensland. Her artistic creations are deeply connected to culture, homelands and family. Davis' works are reflections of a spiritual connection to Country. Through ancestral links, family, identity and community Davis tells not only her own story, but that of her lineage and people.

“Water plays an integral part in the landscape of Country and that of its people,” says Davis. “It is the lifeblood of our world and supports a rich tapestry of life for all living things. 'Waterways and Wonder' is a series of paintings that represent the rivers that give life and are connected to us all. The concept for these pieces came from the connection we have with place, especially the water systems that impact them."
