This is an NBN node cabinet that is one street over from my home.  I walk past this NBN node cabinet when walking my dog to the beach everyday. The NBN Fist Nations Art Node Project is a partnership that covers twenty one NBN node cabinets across thirteen townships with Aboriginal art wraps from 6 local Aboriginal groups which includes Bunurong Land Council in Mornington Peninsula.  This artwork shows new ways to connect with the public.  To find meaning in the Aboriginal Artists stories they represent  or the place they rest.  The artist Norrell Doak is a 5th generation Aboriginal, through her 5x Great Grand Mother Eliza Noween who was a Bunurong woman from Arthur's Seat on the Mornington Peninsula.   Norrell Doak says about her artwork ,"At the base of a waterfall, where the water cascades down to its violent arrival as it meets the waters below.  I sit and reflect on my heritage, so intimately tied to the earth and water, it is a beautiful dance that nature provides.  According to Pacini-Ketchabaw et al. (2016) we can when we choose to see materials as movements, as encounters, as assemblages as time, we can see materials as living things in the world in multiple ways.  In this case I would use this artwork as a way of tying in the ocean, the water, what surrounds, what is in the ocean, what is found in the air near the ocean, feathers of birds, sand both wet and dry, seaweed, shells, as part of a resource to be used in my teaching resource.

This is my daughter's school boatshed erected in 1929, which we walk past daily for our walks along the beach with our dog.  This site offers to the public an amazing display of artwork by the students from 2023.  The children were able to use clay, tiles, paint to create pieces of art that they thought connected themselves to their school, to the ocean and the surroundings of the boatshed.  The children engage in a Science and Aboriginal Studies program which looks at Science through an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people's unique culture.

According to Capilano University Studio Art Gallery (2014) we can determine that material encounters engages with materiality.  Clay, paint, paper these materials all live in the world in different ways.  As I look, the these pieces of art, as I run my fingers along them, I wonder how each of these students were able to experiment with the materials in such a way that they were able to bring these materials to life, to experiment and have such an encounter which perhaps open their minds to wonder about the possibilities that their materials can give them to constantly create with the material.  I could possibly utilise this information as part of my teaching resources by taking walks to the boatshed, allowing the children to access the surroundings of the boatshed and collect what they may see have an an encounter with the materials surrounding the boatshed as they enquire about the materials they see, hear, touch, smell and possibly taste.
