Chern'ee comes from the Kalkadoon people of the Mount Isa area in Queensland, Australia.[1] She takes her inspiration from the tales of her people and embraces themes of reconciliation, inclusion, sports and charity. Her style of painting incorporates traditional indigenous motifs, presented in a fresh and harmonious manner.[2]
Careeredit
Beginningedit
Chern'ee began painting in 2010 as a 13-year-old high school student and usually uses acrylic paints on canvas.[1] She was encouraged by her teacher to enter the Yoorellgoo Indigenous art competition despite no previous experience.[3] “I didn’t expect anything to come out of it. But I came first! And that’s what sparked my passion for art,” she said.[2]
Chern'ee designed the artwork adorning the paws of Borobi, the mascot for the 2018 Commonwealth Games held on the Gold Coast. She also created a 14-metre long painting entitled Journey to Gold welcoming athletes to the Village. Adorned with the fingerprints of 20 000 volunteers and dignitaries, this painting depicts the east coast of Australia down to the Gold Coast and is filled with imagery linking the destination to the 70 Commonwealth nations competing in the games.[8][9]
Painting "Caina Putut, IIya, Wartanganha " - Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow - by Chern'ee Sutton on display in the Royal Australian Mint Canberra
Another artwork, entitled Caina Putut, IIya, Wartanganha - Long ago, Today, Tomorrow - was painted during her residency at the Games Village, and depicts the human story of Australia, following a rainbow serpent from the Dreamtime, winding past people, gatherings and animals, to the Gold Coast, the eleven days of the Games, and the bronze, silver, and gold medal winners, with athletes and dignitaries contributing a thumbprint in the appropriate locations in recognition of the unique indigenous "dot-painting" technique. It is currently on display at the Royal Australian Mint in Canberra, where the Games medals pictured on the 9-metre long artwork were struck.[10]
2023 FIFA Women's World Cupedit
Chern'ee, along with New Zealand artist Fiona Collis, was chosen to produce artwork for the 2023 Women's World Cup, jointly hosted by Australia and New Zealand.[11]
