Dr Miriam Rose Ungunmerr Baumann, an Australian Aboriginal elder, teacher and artist, is in the Vatican for a week-long visit.

There, on Tuesday evening, she will unveil a new painting of hers, drawing– like much of her artwork, such as her renowned Aboriginal Stations of the Cross – on both Indigenous and Christian traditions.Her new painting, Dr Baumann explains in an interview with Vatican News, depicts the “dry season” in the Northern Territories, her region of Australia.

She has also chosen this phrase – so central, it seems to me, to her philosophy – to serve as the name of her new painting.On Wednesday, the day after she unveils We Found God in Nature at the Vatican Museums, Dr Ungunmerr Baumann will attend a Mass marking fifty years since the first Aboriginal liturgy.

This is not, in fact, the first time that a member of Dr Ungunmerr Baumann’s family has met with a leader of the Catholic Church. During Pope John Paul II’s visit to Australia in 1986, he met her sister, and blessed her young son.
