Parrying Malgarr with Budja the Platypus Design.
Traditionally malgarr ( shields ) were used with liyangayil
( fighting clubs) for hand to hand combat with our enemies.
I have replicated the shape ofthese shields in my artwork.
Budja the Platypus is a good indicator of river health.
Budja is a busy little fella who lives in the water and on
the land. Budja lays eggs to produce its offspring.
Hand crafted in Australia from Australian Red Cedar timber.
All artefacts come with an information card.
The card has information about the artist, artefact and design.
All designs are based on traditional symbols from
