Three artists at the conference represented the Euraba Artists/Papermakers Studio from the border-town of Boggabilla. Operated by Goomeroi people in Northern New South Wales, this studio produces unique artworks as well as fine papers for other artists. The Euraba artists conducted a workshop and presented a talk that shared the ways in which they have taken traditional European papermaking techniques and made them their own with their contemporary indigenous sensibilities. In the Goomeroi language Euraba means a place of healing, coming from the healing leaves of the Eura tree. Euraba Artists and Papermakers embrace the healing nature of art for their local community and all others who appreciate fine art.
