Multidisciplinary artist Jarra Karalinar Steel (Boonwurrung, Wemba Wemba and Trawlwoolway) curated the rolling exhibition of RISING’s First Peoples Art Trams from 2022 2024. Before that, in 2021, she contributed one of the most iconic works in the series, Iilk (Eel). This enamel keyring commemorates her contribution to the project. 

From childhood her mother would tell Jarra stories of the iilk (eel) and their long Journey Cycles, as well as their importance as a food source the Boonwurrung people. Her bright, vibrant work is about reclaiming their important place in what we call Melbourne, and expression of her lifelong connection to the city via tram travel. 

Made in collaboration with Gammin Threads.
