Description

Presented by The Cross Art Projects and Buku–Larrnggay Mulka Centre

Australia is in two parts, Yirritja and Dhuwa. The Sun is Dhuwa. The Moon is Yirritja. The sulphur-crested Cockatoo is Yirritja but the Corella (an almost identical white parrot) is Dhuwa. All sharks are Dhuwa except for the Hammerhead and Banjo sharks which are Yirritja. And so on to the insects, planets and people. This is true.
