Jesse Cooper

In the artist’s words:

I researched the Mia Mia by speaking to elders about what materials our ancestors would have used in the area.  I also went back in my memory remembering how my father (Wally Cooper) taught me how to make Mia Mias when I was a kid in the bush.
 
This project is very special to me as I can thank my elders for their teaching through my welding trade. 
 

I would like people using the Mia Mia to feel a sense of connection to the land as us aboriginal people do.
