a while back i lived with the people you see
it was an intense time...
but has shaped part of who i am.
one of my family passed away recently
old johnny...
he was a painter, song man
and eldest son of old auntie mary.
they are singing now...making baparu, manikay...
ngarri djiny ngamunbarra
ganalbingu....
ngarri ngadji...
djut djut djani bangadi.
painted shapes, shaped by intense times, a privilege. beautiful marks.
