This beautiful hand-painted wooden cross is created by Christian Indigenous women from the Ltyentye Apurte (Santa Teresa) Community near Alice Springs, Australia. Each cross is an original “one of a kind” work of art, rich in faith, history, and cultural expression. Using traditional dot painting methods passed down through generations, the artists prayerfully paint each piece to reflect their spiritual journey and deep connection to God and their community.
Each Indigenous Cross is a prayer in colour—celebrating faith, community, and the work of the Holy Spirit. The circular dot patterns represent women gathering from different places, singing Gospel songs, and the flowing white lines symbolise the wind of the Spirit uniting all communities in God’s love. Displaying this cross honours both Indigenous heritage and Christian faith, reminding us of God’s presence across all cultures.
“Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace.” – Ephesians 4:3
