Ondru Postcard Pack

The Ondru Postcard Pack is a beautiful collection of evocative images, stories and descriptions of three of Ondru projects: Voiceless Journeys, Dhum-Djirri Ngagu and Human Thesis: Afghan Stories.

These are wrapped craft in a brown envelope and make a wonderful gift of storytelling or a memento of social change.  

Voiceless Journeys aims to give voice and raise awareness about the journey, struggle, survival and achievements of displaced persons and communities who had left their homes against great odds to forge a new life in Australia; people who positively shape our communities.

Dhum-Djirri Ngagu (Speak, Hear & Understand) showcases the Indigenous stories of connection to country, community and culture. The tapestry of visual and spoken stories knitted together in the form of an artistic book that captures knowledge, the strength of identity and the depth of connection.

Human Thesis: Afghan Stories is hand-woven stories of enduring human displacement. A multidisciplinary art project that aims to express past and ongoing displacement experienced by people of Afghanistan. The stories are shared collectively as a family or a group, where a hand-made sculpture of each group is created with woven stories of all the members and their own experiences of enduring human displacement. The project will embody the themes of identity, freedom, and home. The aim is to provide a voice for those who have been displaced, build solidarity, create a pathway for connection and generate awareness amongst non-Afghan people.
