This poster was recently spotted by Vice-President Brad Powe on a construction site hoarding in Parramatta: Lucy 'Aunty Rene' Maud Lem Cue's image appears in the latest AUSSIE series created by artist Peter Drew.

Drew is an Adelaide-based artist known for his posters featuring portrait photographs from the National Archives of Australia files of applications for Certificates of Exemption from the Dictation Test that applied under the 'White Australia Policy'.

Over the last decade, a number of other Chinese Australians have featured on Drew's artworks, including Jimmy Ah Can, Ah Sing, Gladys Sym Choon, Dorothy Sym Choon, Amy Lee Gow, and Nellie Chin.
