According to the story, Anangu tjuta (lots of people) went to that rockhole for the kapi (water), which is said to taste sweet. This upset the father and he told them to go back to their own country. Once the people left, the father and son travelled to Willuna, where they camped for weeks. They then return to Pukara. One day they were sleeping, but were awoken by a loud buzzing sound. The Minyma Punpunpa (the female flies) had been attracted to the honey grevillea plants found near the waterhole. It prompted the father and son to get up and go to collect the honey from the plants. It is there that the Wati Mututa (male black ants) appeared. They speared the son in his side.

Some pieces are pure artistic expression, while others are both sculptural and functional. Her lighting works engage with space through form and illumination, blurring the boundaries between object and atmosphere.

Her mark making is intuitive – scraping, brushing, carving – and responsive to the specificity of the materials at hand.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sc-fQLpxn eoOGDx\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sc-fQLpxn eoOGDx\"\u003e—\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sc-fQLpxn eoOGDx\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sc-eZSpzM dTSawo\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sc-bAehkN eXOdeP phx-GridRow row phx-GridRow--large\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sc-gahYZc osAnh phx-GridCell phx-GridCell--col1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sc-bEjUoa sc-jvKoal eGjvKy bSodFS\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterials: \u003c\/strong\u003eVelour textile, adhesive, acrylic polymer and acrylic mediums on board\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sc-bEjUoa sc-jvKoal eGjvKy bSodFS\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sc-eZSpzM dTSawo\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sc-bAehkN eXOdeP phx-GridRow row phx-GridRow--large\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sc-gahYZc osAnh phx-GridCell phx-GridCell--col1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sc-bEjUoa sc-jvKoal eGjvKy bSodFS\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 26 x 21.5cm\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sc-eZSpzM dTSawo\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sc-bAehkN eXOdeP phx-GridRow row phx-GridRow--large\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sc-gahYZc osAnh phx-GridCell phx-GridCell--col3\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sc-fQLpxn eoOGDx\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sc-eZSpzM dTSawo\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sc-bAehkN eXOdeP phx-GridRow row phx-GridRow--large\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sc-gahYZc osAnh phx-GridCell phx-GridCell--col3\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sc-fQLpxn eoOGDx\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sc-eZSpzM dTSawo\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sc-bAehkN eXOdeP phx-GridRow row phx-GridRow--large\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sc-gahYZc osAnh phx-GridCell phx-GridCell--col3\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Ruby Brown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47978454417626,"sku":"T-RB006","price":800.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0033\/5002\/files\/078_Craft_Product_June_2026_C_Armstrong.jpg?v=1782366912"},{"product_id":"claudia-bloxsome-like-a-searchlight","title":"Claudia Bloxsome — 'Like a Searchlight', Textile Wall Work","description":"\u003cp\u003eA woven form that hangs away from the wall on custom brackets.

Sometimes compared to the European notion of mermaids, they exist as spiritual beings living in freshwater streams, particularly those in the stone country. These water spirits are perhaps the most enigmatic, and are usually described and depicted with the tails of fish. Thus the Kuninjku people sometime call them ngalberddjenj which literally means 'the woman who has a tail like a fish'. They have long hair which is associated with trailing blooms of green algae (man-bak in Kuninjku) found in freshwater streams and rock pools. At times they leave their aquatic homes to walk about on dry land, particularly at night.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAboriginal people believe that at one time all animals were humans. During the time of the creation of landscapes and plants and animals, these ancestor heroes in human form changed into their animal forms via a series of various significant events now recorded as oral mythologies. Today the Kuninjku believe that ngalkunburriyaymi are alive and well and living in freshwater sites in a number of sacred locations. The Kuninjku also believe that 'clever' man (magicians with mystical powers called na-kordang) may take these spirits as wives. The father of Mandarrk, a well known artist who resided in the Central Arnhem area, is said to have had such a spirit as a wife. Unfortunately, it is said, she failed one day to return from being sent to fetch water from the river, and returned to her kin. The ngalkunburriyaymi also have husbands and children of their own kind.\u003cbr\u003eTheir sites are usually shared with the rainbow serpent ngalyod. Some have ritual importance, for example in some depictions, the yawkyawk spirit holds ceremonial string, just like the lengths of string women hold between both hands today during certain public ceremonies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere are at least three major ngalkunburriyaymi sacred sites that are well known in the area south and south-west of Maningrida. One site Bolerrhlerr is on the Mann River at a place near Yikarrakkal Outstation where there are rugged rocky banks and clefts beneath stone overhangs in the water. Another very similar site further west in the Kumadderr River district is surrounded by a number of small but very old rock art sites and has become known in English as 'Dreaming Lady'. A third site is a major yawkyawk dreaming place which is so significant that the traditional Dangkorlo clan custodians have set up an outstation near the site. The identity of this group is very much related to their yawkyawk dreaming for which they have spiritual\u003cbr\u003eand practical responsibility.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan\u003e—\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sc-fYzRkI bCzEca\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sc-dQelHR gsfJfa phx-GridRow row phx-GridRow--large\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sc-bCDidY hSYvYm phx-GridCell phx-GridCell--col3\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sc-eGFuAX ciOtkg\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sc-fYzRkI bCzEca\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sc-dQelHR gsfJfa phx-GridRow row phx-GridRow--large\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sc-bCDidY hSYvYm phx-GridCell phx-GridCell--col3\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sc-eGFuAX ciOtkg\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sc-fYzRkI bCzEca\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sc-dQelHR gsfJfa phx-GridRow row phx-GridRow--large\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sc-bCDidY hSYvYm phx-GridCell phx-GridCell--col3\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sc-eGFuAX ciOtkg\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sc-fYzRkI bCzEca\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sc-dQelHR gsfJfa phx-GridRow row phx-GridRow--large\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sc-bCDidY hSYvYm phx-GridCell phx-GridCell--col3\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sc-eGFuAX ciOtkg\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSamantha Malkudja\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eSkin Name: Bangardijan \/ Language: Kuninjku \/ Moiety:Yirridjdja \/ Country: Yikarrakkal\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSamantha Malkadja learned to weave from her mother Frewa Bardaluna, a master fibre artist who had numerous exhibitions with leading Australian commercial galleries.

The different groups of Kunwinjku people (one of the Eastern dialect groups call themselves Kuninjku) each have Yawkyawk mythologies, which relate to specific locations in clan estates. These mythologies are represented in bark paintings and sculptures of Yawkyawk beings. There are also a few examples of rock art images of these beings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe female water spirits Yawkyawk or Ngalkunburriyaymi are perhaps the most enigmatic of mythological themes. Sometimes compared to the European notion of mermaids, they exist as spiritual beings living in freshwater streams and rock pools, particularly those in the stone country. The spirit Yawkyawk is usually described and depicted with the tail of a fish. Thus the Kuninjku people sometimes call them ngalberddjenj which literally means 'the young woman who has a tail like a fish'. They have long hair, which is associated with trailing blooms of green algae (called man-bak in Kuninjku). At times they leave their\\aquatic homes to walk about on dry land, particularly at night. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAboriginal people believe that in the beginning most animals were humans. During the time of the creation of landscapes and plants and animals, these ancestral heroes in human form transmutated into their animal forms via a series of various significant events now recorded as oral mythologies. The creation ancestor Yawkyawk travelled the country in human form and changed into the form of Ngalkunburriyaymi as a result of various ancestral adventures. Today the Kuninjku believe that Ngalkunburriyaymi are alive and well and living in freshwater sites in a number of sacred locations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSome features of a respective country are equated with body parts of Yawkyawk.

Artists confidently push the boundaries of fibre craft and cultural expression, adapting traditional techniques and forms to produce strikingly inventive and aesthetically exquisite artworks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCommonly used fibres include the leaves of pandanus (Pandanus spiralis), and palms (Livistonus), mírlírl (burney or jungle vine, Malaisia scandens), and the inner bark of kurrajong and stringybark eucalyptus trees. Weaving is physically hard work, now done only by women. Artists commonly use a mix of naturally dyed and undyed fibre to create a striking variation of coloured bands. They colour the pandanus using natural dyes made from the roots, leaves or flowers of plants within the weaver’s clan estate. Some artists also incorporate different types of looping to produce different patterns and textured finishes. Each type of mat, fibre bag, basket and dilly bag has its own name in the various languages spoken in the Maningrida region.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eArtists weave many different kinds of mats. Conical mats were traditionally used to shield babies from mosquitoes. Long flat mats were used for blocking creeks so that fish would be diverted into fish traps. A small triangular mat made of pandanus fibre used to be worn by women during ceremonial gatherings, tied around their back and covering them at the front.

Weaving is physically hard work, now done only by women. Artists commonly use a mix of naturally dyed and undyed fibre to create a striking variation of coloured bands. They colour the pandanus using natural dyes made from the roots, leaves or flowers of plants within the weaver’s clan estate. Some artists also incorporate different types of looping to produce different patterns and textured finishes.
