This shows the beautiful Lomandra longifolia or the spiny headed mat rush. I was shown by a Wurundjeri woman and she called it Kurawan. There may be a different name depending on the Country you're on.

The leaves are prepared and used to weave bags.

I have represented eels and their movements in the background as the leaves could also be used to weave eel traps. Which for me really sets this work apart from the others as this is representing the Eastern States and where I live, play and raise my kids.
