This artwork, "The Power of Words", has  been created especially for the Readers and Writers Esperance 2021  program by Nyungar artist Jennell Reynolds (Nannapa). It represents  women and men from different groups coming together in Kepa Kurl  (Esperance) to share and celebrate different types of storytelling. At  the centre of the artwork the powerful flow of language and text forges  its way through society, altering perceptions as it goes.
