The Binji Water Dreaming



The Murrumbur are one of many indigenous people who live today in the area of the Kakadu National Park in the North of Australia

Together with Georgie Walton-Cunhill the traditional owner of Binji Water, I collected four SPOIL samples around Patonga, the settlement of her clan, which is situated between Jim Jim Billabong and Binji Water.

Billabong stands for LIFE. The Billabong waters, which rise and fall with the seasons, are home to both salt water crocodiles, snakes and other dangerous animals and to the Aboriginal People settled there, whose survival is reliant on the variety of the animal and plant world.
