  • Urban Aboriginal Identity
    According to Bourke, this spiritual landscape, is very difficult for a non-Indigenous person to see, feel or understand as Urban Aboriginal Identity: they have different ways of seeing “spiritual and physical survival.” (1995) This kind of landscape also includes gender “I can’t see the durt (stars) in the city” roles, not only in the physical form on earth, but also in the stars. For instance, the Wurundjeri, believe that Bunjil the Creator, the wedgetail eagle (Aquila audax) is male, and his two wives, Gunuwarra the black swans (Cygnus atratus) are female. Narratives like these are mapped out in the stars and demonstrates that Biik-dui (Land Country) Wurru-wurru Ms Mandy Nicholson Professor David Jones Biik (Sky Country) are one and intrinsically connected in many ways. (Massola 1968); (Hamacher 2014); (Christies & Faculty of Science, Engineering & Built Environment Faculty of Science, Engineering & Built Environment Bush 2008). Country embodies these connections associating with what’s under the ground, on, above, into the sky, and Deakin University Deakin University finally into the cosmos. This paper will attempt to bring further understanding to the ways that the physical and spiritual Victoria, Australia Victoria, Australia landscapes are connected and interact tangibly and intangibly, and how language plays a vital part. It will also discuss, [email protected] [email protected] from a Wurundjeri perspective, how to remain part of the many intersections and interconnections of a spiritual landscape, or Country. Through examining and defining place and space, and reclaimed place and space in a contemporary world, we will discover how Wurundjeri people successfully maintain cultural practise and keep their identity strong in a built environment.
