On the trail of Art Month at Katie Pye's Robbie Burns Hotel, Wyndham

The event was part of Art Month Sapphire Coast and included music by Robyn Martin and her band The Drift with special guests the Djinama Yilaga Choir.

And for those who hadn't visited the Robbie Burns since its re-opening in May this year, it was a chance to look at the renovations carried out by artist and fashion designer Katie Pye who purchased the property in 2015.

Inside there is an eclectic collection of art, furniture and objects d'art with strong hints of the theatrical, born out of Ms Pye's background in fashion, time in India, and mixed with the traditional.

Every wall, every corner holds not just one, but several points of interest.

Outside Ms Pye introduced the Djinama Yilaga Choir and in particular Iris Walker-White who was to give a Welcome to Country.

Ms Walker-White spoke about her some of her ancestors, how they were taken and trained as servants at the Cootamundra Training Home for Girls.

"It is difficult in some environments to do a Welcome to Country because I have to ask 'what is it that we welcome'", Ms Walker-White said.

"Our coming together has been a part of a long journey of healing."

She said that what had started out as a project (the choir) through Four Winds has turned into something very different for each one of the choir's members.

Ms Walker-White also thanked Robyn Martin for her collaboration on the music for songs in the Dhurga language.
