Karen Chugg has lived in Inverloch since 2008, having previously lived for 2 years in the unique environment of Darwin, Northern Territory. With its consistent celebration of Aboriginal language, culture, presence and influence, the lack of meaningful recognition of that history, contribution and presence in this nation by the non-indigenous authorities and many of the population remains in contrast.
A regular walker on the beaches and surrounds Karen is constantly aware of the people, the families and the children, who have walked these tracks over thousands of years and descendants who continue to do so today. This gorgeous coast, part of Bunurong lands, has supported the lives of thousands of years of Indigenous families.
Karen has attempted to capture and convey some of the beauty of a small strip of these lands, and in so doing, honour the traditional owners. The land of the Bunurong clans extends from Mornington to Wilson’s Promontory.
