(Detail)
Date Completed: 2000
Price: $900
Size:
Artwork (42 * 60cm) box frame, float mount, black background, with buff mat board.
Materials Used: 100% Cotton rag
Artist's statement about the description of the artwork
The symbol means the coming together of the Tribes, all clans in the area get together for sporting events, corroboree's, spear and boomerang throwing, bartering, singing, foot racing. It was a social outing and get together for our ancestors.

The modern day version of the gathering together of tribes is a National Aboriginal Week that we also know as NAIDOC. Every year they have a Knockout Rugby League tournament, the winners get to have it in their own town. Artists, singers and bands go around to different towns to entertain, cook JohnnyCakes, traditional dancers and native foods. The women have a couple of football players as well. At the end they have a ball.

Today tradition is still carried on through A - Week.
Everyone looks forward to A - Week.
