About Our Logo
Larrakia Artist, Jason Lee
Reconciliation Northern Territory's new logo, designed by respected Larrakia artist Uncle Jason Lee, whose artwork was selected as the winner of the organisation's logo design competition.
Jason is a self-taught artist living on saltwater country. He started learning his Gulumerrdjin (Larrakia) culture from a young age, which was further cultivated during his teenage years and through learning Larrakia language. Jason has recently created a new work called Gunamidirra, meaning saltwater, which you can see in the mall, bringing a pop of blue colour to the planter boxes and benches throughout.
Mr Lee said the design tells the story of reconciliation through symbols of unity, connection and shared purpose.
"This logo represents the journey of reconciliation, unity, and shared understanding across the Northern Territory," he said.
About the design
"At its centre is a circular meeting place symbol, a common element in Aboriginal art that signifies connection, dialogue, and the coming together of diverse peoples and communities."
The artwork's four distinct sections reflect the diversity of the Northern Territory's landscapes, histories and cultures, while its earthy ochre, red, gold, white and brown tones draw inspiration from both the natural environment and Aboriginal cultural traditions.
Surrounding the central meeting place are human figures of different colours, representing people from all backgrounds standing together in respect, inclusion and partnership.
"The footprints encircling the artwork represent the many journeys that have brought people together and the collective path forward towards reconciliation," Mr Lee said.
"The intersecting pathways connecting the centre highlight collaboration, understanding, and the importance of building strong relationships between Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and the wider community."
Mr Lee said the design ultimately symbolises "unity, respect, cultural strength, and a shared commitment to walking together towards a more reconciled future for the Northern Territory".
Our History

Founded by NT Aboriginal community leaders, RNT works to strengthen relationships, support Reconciliation Action Plans, promote truth-telling, and amplify Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander voices in decision-making. Through partnerships, advocacy and community engagement, RNT aims to help organisations and communities turn reconciliation commitments into practical, measurable outcomes.

We advocate for meaningful reconciliation outcomes across the Northern Territory and work to elevate Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander voices in decision-making, community development and organisational leadership.
Networking and Collaboration
We bring together organisations, community leaders and reconciliation champions to share knowledge, celebrate success and collaborate on initiatives that create lasting impact.
