Allira, whose artwork is featured on our new
inspection courtesy slips. Housing Choices WA recently purchased the original artwork and digital licence for Allira’s painting called Nidja Boodja which means ‘this country’ in Noongar. Allira displayed this piece at our annual Tenant Art Showcase in May this year. Allira is a Ballardong Noongar woman who has recently been discovering her passion for art and colour mixing inspired by her artistic niece and daughter. Her painting Nidja Boodja is inspired by a song about mining and how the land becomes sick when it is stripped of its resources.
