NAVITAS RECONCILIATION ACTION PLAN
Developed by SAE’s parent company and global education provider, Navitas, the Reconciliation Action Plan (REFLECT) builds on existing local activity and identified practical plans for action and tangible ways to build mutually beneficial relationships with First Nations stakeholders, and demonstrate respect for First Nations cultures, histories, knowledge and rights.
About the Artist
Marcia McGuire
SAE acknowledges Marcia McGuire, a proud Whadjuk, Ballardong and Yamatji Aboriginal woman from Perth, who was engaged by Navitas to produce this artwork for its Reconciliation Action Plan.
Marcia McGuire is a Whadjuk, Ballardong and Yamatji Aboriginal woman from Perth Western Australia. Since she was a young girl, Marcia has felt a strong connection to art; she loved to draw and paint, never missed art classes and always achieved top results in art at school. Inspired by her ancestors’ traditional art, dreamtime stories and culture, Marcia loves to create and design art that incorporates traditional customs and designs into everyday living, so that First Nations culture continues to be represented and celebrated in modern culture.
As an artist, Marcia is always looking for ways to bring her people’s culture into everyday living. “It’s no lie to say I live, breathe and dream of art in everything I do.”
