Our Logo

Kamira is an Aboriginal word for "of the wind". In 2017, Kamira commissioned local Aboriginal artist, Gary Purchase, to create a logo that represents the spirit of Kamira.

Aboriginal Symbol Flower

Kookaburra Tail Feather

Wedge-Tailed Eagle

The large “U” shapes are an Aboriginal symbol for women. The smaller “U” shapes represent children.

Circles commonly represent meeting places, shelters, or gatherings.
​
The long stem represents a pathway in.

I wanted to replace the peacock feather from the previous logo with a more appropriate feather.

I looked at heaps of female local birds and thought that the kookaburra was a suitable replacement.
Picture
“Kamira” means “of the wind”.

I wanted to use a powerful bird that can be found in the area.

I’ve used the women’s meeting place symbol as the sun with the eagle soaring.
