eco-relationship with all sentience

ecosystems of the body - tissues of the land

Please press play so that my voice can accompany you…

 
 

You are a coastline of consciousness, experiencing Itself.


Great currents and tides breathe you into form. Arising from the amnion, of Ocean. 

Sand your skin, streaming kelp your muscles. Soft bellied anemone, undulant stingray - your organs and diaphragm. Phytoplanktonic lungs.

 
 

Estuaries, interior wetlands; gush and trickle of blood, and cleanse and flush of lymph and timeless suspensions curving space in cerebrospinal lagoons

Bony escarpment cliffs; trabecular star maps in Shell and Salt ~
who are you?

Rippled language etching the luminous littoral; Story
songlines

Your Body. Sea. Earth. One

Welcome,
To the Saltwater Songlines.

 

  • "Saltwater Songlines is like an amazing adventure into the very essence of existence. It opened doors in my consciousness that I did not even know were available. I feel more at peace inside this complex life and world for having walked these Songlines of Self and Country."

    Maria, US

  • "Narelle's program is radically life-changing and subtle at the same time. It has shifted my perception of myself in relation to the land, allowing me to better express who I am in life. I learned how to arrive at a deeper level. I feel as if my whole nervous system has been re-written."

    Barbara, Germany

  • “Narelle is an elder with timeless wisdom that opens doors beyond words. Through her guidance, I feel deep cellular remembering being anchored into my physical body. As I walk beside her, I am learning to see with all my senses, experience flow and trust the fullness of life.”

    Raquel, Australia

 

Imagine a Place of Immersive Sensorium, a Gallery alive.

Images lush and brocaded in body-earth echo, multi layered sentience in film; a visual and visceral, interoceptive and kinaesthetic language. Your storied eco-relationship: tissues of earth, ecosystems of body. Embodiment of living land, profoundly corporeal, encompassing all. 

Awe

Beauty

Wholeness

 
 

A Cathedral of liquid light, your shifting consciousness reflected back to you as felt, known, direct experience.

Sensing Earth, Waters, Rock and Sand, knowing Wind and Salt and Atmos. All of it, sensing, and knowing, You.
The dialogue of dadirri; deep listening. Reciprocity.

An enclave of contemplation, devotion, reverence; your true education - meaning: to be present at the birth of. Community, with all Ones.

An ongoing kaleidoscope of transformation
you are . . .

 

This online experience - the Saltwater Songlines - is that Place.

 

 I created this space as

Cathedral

Your encounter with the Sacred. Spacious vibratory body - the effulgent photonic of All.

I open this space as

Monastery

deep study, truest education, Communion with others - all Others. The devotion of Practice. 

I offer this space on the

Altar

of my lived life and art - as Galleried experiences of ongoing enquiry and consecration.

 

I walk. 

I make pictures. 

In direct porous encounter with Place, I listen.

This is how I pray.

 
 

Come, join with me, in conscious, grounded participation with yourself.

Let us walk ourselves through ecologies and histologies inner and outer,

sensing, witnessing, celebrating, honouring; knowing our interwoven interpenetrating harmonic of wholeness.

Singing a new dreaming, together. 

 
 

Come

A whole community is gathering
on the breathing tides

 
 

Weaving New Songlines Film

Made on Gubbi Gubbi & Darkinjung Countries. Rainbow Serpent, Embryology & Anatomy

 
 

The music in this film is by the beloved musician, David Parsons, who passed away Feb 15, 2025. When I made the film in May 2020, David generously gave me special written permission to use his music - “Old Man in the Trees” - for my film. He was entranced by the images. Other pieces of David’s music have been used in my films “Sibayak” and “Wonderland”, made on location on a month long photo shoot in Northern Sumatra 2019, again, with David’s direct kind permission. Best with headphones & fullscreen.

Senior Aboriginal Law Woman, Grandmother Mulara, wrote the following review of the WNS film; “This is a masterpiece of pure devotion and compassion, that captures the sands of time immortal on our beautiful planet as she transcends into a new wave of consciousness, co-creating new songliines and unparalleled majesty. The New Dreaming is upon us.”
