The mural in the image depicts indigenous or tribal-style artwork, featuring prominent figures and symbols reminiscent of Aboriginal or traditional art forms.

The center showcases two tall, stylised human figures in an oval shape. They appear in profile, holding tools or spears, possibly representing warriors or ancestral beings, a common motif in indigenous art. Their simplified, elongated forms with painted designs emphasise traditional aesthetics.
Surrounding Patterns:

Around the central oval, various snake-like patterns and organic shapes wind across the mural. These likely represent animals or natural symbols such as snakes, which are often significant in indigenous stories and cultural symbols.
The background is dotted with circular and hand-like motifs, which might symbolise connection, spirituality, or continuity, resonant in indigenous or aboriginal iconography.

Colour Scheme and Dot Work:
The mural employs earthy colours like brown, ochre, blue, and white. The background and snake patterns incorporate dot painting techniques, a distinctive feature of Aboriginal art, used to convey movement, nature, and storytelling.

Additional Elements:
Smaller symbols, like abstract shapes and handprints, are scattered throughout the mural. These may signify community, ancestors, or natural spirits, adding layers of meaning.
This artwork seems intended to celebrate indigenous heritage, spirituality, and connection with nature.
