They were constructed by members of the Bourke and Brewarrina Aboriginal communities and were unveiled in the two towns to coincide with NAIDOC Week this week.
"These twin fish sculptures were a community education project supported by the Office of Environment and Heritage (OEH) and Netwaste, to harness people's imagination and raise awareness of just how much rubbish we all throw away," OEH chief executive officer Sally Barnes said.
She said National Parks and Wildlife Service (NPWS) and OEH staff were also visiting schools, cultural centres and public places this week to help celebrate Aboriginal history, culture and achievements.
