Free as a Cow

Artist: Ron Roozen
Asset Type: Sculpture
Year of Work: 2010
Location: Pioneer Park
Provenance: Shire of Augusta Margaret River
Description: The gleaming gold statue, nicknamed Rump on a Stump, is a tongue in cheek take on Free as a Bird, the once controversial sculpture at Laurance Wines (now Frui Momento at Cherubino).
It was created for the 2010 Cow Parade and skilfully erected in Pioneer Park, Cowaramup.
Cow Parade is the world’s largest public art event. Started in 1999 in Chicago, it has been held in all major cities around the world. It is a fundraising project whereby local artists buy a cow and paint or decorate it and display it in the city. The cows are auctioned after the event and all proceeds go to local charities.
Note: contrary to popular belief, Cowaramup is named after the purple crowned lorikeet – or Cowara in local Wadandi dialect – and not cows.

Location: Collie Visitor Centre, 154 Throssell St (inside)
Provenance: Shire of Collie
Description: Each year, the traditional Noongar people of this area would travel through the countryside following the seasons and settling where food was plentiful. After a stint inland, they would gather in an area like the one depicted in this artwork to wait for the orchids to flower. It was at this time they knew to follow the nearby Brunswick River to the coast where the fish would be running. Images of Noongar ancestors can be seeing the trees framing the artworks as a mark of respect for those that have passed.
The left-hand panel depicts a camping ground where the Noongar people would hold corrobarees involving traditional singing, tapping sticks and dance. There was always a fire burning for warmth, cooking and light. The water represents the Brunswick River.
The central panel shows the diversity of flora and fauna native to the area. When the trees used to blossom, there were spider and donkey orchids, berries, gumnuts and flowers. The Noongars knew there was feed in the river. Marron, crabs and cobblers all lived in the Brunswick River which then flows into the Collie River and continues into the estuary near Eaton.
The right-hand panel shows Noongar people leaving the campsite and travelling closer to the coast. The place they set up camp is known as the Kingston area today. This is something they did each year as they followed the feed and the seasons. This areas was a campsite for the local Noongar people who used it as a place to stop on their way to the coast. They walked along the Brunswick River and then the Collie River before continuing onto the estuary around Australind / Eaton.
