Towering more than 5 metres above a park in Victoria’s north-west is a large shrivelled brown sculpture with a beaming smile.
The Big Sultana in Mildura has been unveiled as Australia’s newest big thing.
Noice !

If we’re going to be kitschy let’s really make the most of the Big Sultana. It could be Big Social Cohesion Sultana.
It’s very Aussie AND it’s brown and it’s not gender-specific AND it’s happy. It could be dressed up on special occasions with varying cultural accessories so it could become anything from indigenous to Aussie Farmer to wearing a Sikh turban or a Muslim hijab or a Jewish kippah. It could be a drag queen. It could be a surfer. It could be a baby. It could be an oldy. The options are many…
Not gendered? Surely male Sultanas are called Sultans
😆
True, but what’s in a name? The Big Sultana could go either way.
