My people's very existence - along with our tribal lore, song, dance and stories of our Dreamtime that connects us to the country geographically, physically and spiritually - is still alive.
In some places however, sadly it is almost nonexistent. Resiliency though, with every fall of footsteps, we follow the path to survival, some falling by the wayside, others on the outer or on the scrapheap of society.
I'm from the few, the lucky ones I guess, who still know my culture and tribal tongue.
This painting is a reflection of the East Kimberley region and its people.
My people.
The home of the Wandjina Creation Spirits.
