Part of that process is utilising their knowledge to tell a story about water so that we could then use it as a talking piece at events and a way to engage further with our community about water conservation and connection to Country. #### **Did you have a clear idea of what you wanted and how did that change when you first met Tyson?** I didn't have a clear idea of what I wanted, all I knew was that it needed to be told in the right way, a personal way from an indigenous artist that reflected our connection with water. I actually met Tyson on a day off on the weekend at a distillery in Newcastle, he was painting a surfboard as part of the festival and he was just chatting to people while he was painting so I approached him afterwards and he was definitely interested in helping us with the project and then just sort of after having a few chats with him I realised that it was going to be more than just the piece of art for the project and that it was a real opportunity to create a relationship and I saw the value in sharing that conversation. #### **What were the results?** We created a video of Tyson painting and while he's painting, you get to know his story and his experience and his messages about water. We shared the video to our social media pages and in Reconciliation Week. The response has been phenomenal. It’s our most engaged piece we’ve had on social media and the biggest reach for an organic post ever. The best part about the reach was that the indigenous community in our area had a unanimously positive sentiment as well, everybody felt really proud to be part of that and I guess when people are at events and they see the water stations, there is a sense of recognition of the artwork. #### **You said one of the most unexpected outcomes of this project was the effect that it had on staff at Hunter water? Tell us more** We engaged Tyson to work with our staff, we had our celebration event and Tyson did a live installation at that event. He painted a water tank and anybody that was at the event was able to come and help paint as well so while they were painting, they were having a chat to Tyson, hearing his stories and understanding his point of view and so it was really insightful for staff to be able to have those conversations instead of just seeing it on the video or the end product and Tyson actually told me a beautiful story that touched him in a huge way was that one of our executive managers had come up to him and thanked him for his words and his participation in the video and she mentioned that one time previously, she was going into a board meeting and she was nervous. She watched Tyson's video just before she went into the board meeting and it grounded her. I love the circle of that inspiration. #### **What did you learn from this process? ** The biggest learning was the value of having those conversations rather than procuring somebody for a specific purpose. I know that I've developed a great relationship with Tyson and I hope because we've had that connection and we've continued those conversations, it's not just a business transaction. Moving forward, we're able to take those learnings and look at how we can sort of change how we do things in the future as well as how we engage Indigenous organisations. Just have an open mind about it and have those conversations. Thank you to Alicia Fry and Jo Taranto. #### ** ** ##  This podcast is proudly sponsored by Schneider Electric [![schneider electric](https://www.awa.asn.au/hs-fs/hubfs/website-assets-2021/marketplace-listing-logos/schneider%20electric.png?width=315&height=126&name=schneider%20electric.png)](https://www.se.com/ww/en/)   [ First Nations ](https://www.awa.asn.au/resources/latest-news/tag/first-nations) [ Podcasts ](https://www.awa.asn.au/resources/latest-news/tag/podcasts) [ Hunter Water ](https://www.awa.asn.au/resources/latest-news/tag/hunter-water) [ Indigenous ](https://www.awa.asn.au/resources/latest-news/tag/indigenous) [ Art ](https://www.awa.asn.au/resources/latest-news/tag/art) [ Diversity and Inclusion ](https://www.awa.asn.au/resources/latest-news/tag/diversity-and-inclusion) [ schneider electric ](https://www.awa.asn.au/resources/latest-news/tag/schneider-electric) [ United by Water Podcast ](https://www.awa.asn.au/resources/latest-news/tag/united-by-water-podcast) Share [![email icon](https://www.awa.asn.au/hubfs/website-assets-2021/icons/icon-dark-sandstone-email.svg "email icon") ](mailto:?subject=Podcast%20–%20The%20power%20of%20indigenous%20art,%20reconciliation%20and%20conversation&body=Check%20out%20https://www.awa.asn.au/resources/latest-news/podcast-united-by-water-episode-16) [![facebook-icon](https://www.awa.asn.au/hubfs/website-assets-2021/icons/icon-dark-sandstone-facebook.svg "facebook icon") ](https://www.facebook.com/sharer/sharer.php?u=https://www.awa.asn.au/resources/latest-news/podcast-united-by-water-episode-16) [![LinkedIn icon](https://www.awa.asn.au/hubfs/website-assets-2021/icons/icon-dark-sandstone-linkedin.svg "LinkedIn icon") ](https://www.linkedin.com/shareArticle?mini=true&url=https://www.awa.asn.au/resources/latest-news/podcast-united-by-water-episode-16) [![Twitter icon](https://www.awa.asn.au/hubfs/website-assets-2021/icons/icon-dark-sandstone-twitter.svg "Twitter icon") ](https://twitter.com/home?status=https://www.awa.asn.au/resources/latest-news/podcast-united-by-water-episode-16) ## RELATED NEWS [![](https://www.awa.asn.au/hs-fs/hubfs/water%20drop.jpg?width=352&name=water%20drop.jpg) ](https://www.awa.asn.au/resources/latest-news/podcast-united-by-water-episode-21) ### [ Podcast – Co-designing change: Town Water Risk Reduction Program ](https://www.awa.asn.au/resources/latest-news/podcast-united-by-water-episode-21) James Greene In the latest episode of our United by Water podcast, host Jo Taranto sits down with Amanda Chadwick, Carmel Krogh and Brendan… [ Read Full Paper ](https://www.awa.asn.au/resources/latest-news/podcast-united-by-water-episode-21) [![ Donald Hughan and Sylvia Campbell sit down with Jo Taranto](https://www.awa.asn.au/hs-fs/hubfs/Podcast_Donald%20Hughan_and_Sylvia_Campbell.jpg?width=352&name=Podcast_Donald%20Hughan_and_Sylvia_Campbell.jpg) ](https://www.awa.asn.au/resources/latest-news/podcast-accelerating-action-episode-15) ### [ Podcast – Build it and they will come - Breaking down employment barriers for people with disabilities ](https://www.awa.asn.au/resources/latest-news/podcast-accelerating-action-episode-15) Water Source In the latest episode of the Accelerating Action podcast, Donald Hughan (Corporate Risk Coordinator, Goulburn-Murray Water, former… [ Read Full Paper ](https://www.awa.asn.au/resources/latest-news/podcast-accelerating-action-episode-15) [![Biosolids from wastewater treatment plants can be used as fertiliser ](https://www.awa.asn.au/hs-fs/hubfs/farm-6625450_1280.jpg?width=352&name=farm-6625450_1280.jpg) ](https://www.awa.asn.au/resources/latest-news/podcast-accelerating-action-episode-16) ### [ Podcast – Biosolids production and end use in Australia and New Zealand: statistics and trends ](https://www.awa.asn.au/resources/latest-news/podcast-accelerating-action-episode-16) Water Source In the latest episode of the Accelerating Action podcast, Lauren Randall (Team Leader, Drinking Water Quality Program, Hunter… [ Read Full Paper ](https://www.awa.asn.au/resources/latest-news/podcast-accelerating-action-episode-16) Advertising --- ### Subscribe to our newsletters Sign up to get the latest news and insights from us Advertising --- ![white arrow pointing upwards](https://www.awa.asn.au/hubfs/website-assets-2021/icons/awa-white-arrow-up.svg) Top [![Footer-logo-02](https://www.awa.asn.au/hubfs/Footer-logo-02.svg) ](https://www.awa.asn.au/) The **Australian Water Association** acknowledges the Traditional Custodians across Australia, where we live, work and play, for their deep connection to our precious waters and land.
