Nikeeta Haverfield
My Aboriginality comes from my Dads side of the family, He was apart of the stolen generation and was taken away from his family when he was a young boy and has been unable to make contact with his family since.
Growing up with the absent link to my family history has been hard for my family. I find that the best way to express my cultural identity creatively is through my passion for art and love for my background.
I started painting when I was in high school. They organized an Aboriginal art workshop on a Monday afternoon and sometimes 2 times a week. since then I have never looked back, the opportunity I was given to be taught by an amazing aboriginal artist has helped me develop the fundamental skills I needed to connect with my culture in a way I didn't think possible.
