Melville
For each decoded Noongar placename, the contributing artists voted to select a symbol representing the meaning of the place, as uncovered during the decoding process. These symbols are derived from clay stamps and illustrations produced by the community during the cultural mapping workshops. These were then turned into riso prints to visually capture the essence of each placename.
