Language/s: Kala Kawaw Ya, Kriol

I come from Koedal, Kurrzi and Dhangal totem through my parents. I live and grew up in Kubin Village on Mua island in the western cluster. My art work describes the stories told by our ancestors through their dreams, which are passed down by our fathers to father to son. This transcripts in our mind, then the stories are put into painting, printing and carving.
