William Ricketts Sanctuary

A few months ago my cousin and I went to William Ricketts Sanctuary in Mount Dandenong.

It was absolutely beautiful.

Here are my favourite pictures that my cousin took.


This is a sculpture William made of himself. He is protecting two Ringtail Possums and his body is fused with a Kangaroo.


He believed nature, humans and animals were all one.

Another sculpture of William with some Aboriginal children. I love the moss that has grown over it, it almost proves his idea that we are all one.

Absolutely stunning. 

He believed that humans must care for nature as it is essential for life.


It is awful to see that his strong notions about the environment are continuously being lost.itjantjatjara
