Officers commissioned the work by painter Tamara Murray, who shared her thoughts on the work at a ceremony on Monday.
She said the piece, which features the Murray River and colours to reflect the region's ever changing landscape, aims to break down barriers between Aboriginal and non-Aborginal Australians.
Ms Murray said the work reflected her culture, which she said "is everything to me".
