Birrunga is my Ancestor, my Great grandfather; a Creator Spirit whose law is the sky.

This is my law to learn and also my totem.


I have been through naming ceremony and have taken my Great Grandfather’s name.

This piece shows Birrunga practicing Wir Buyaa, raising his right hand to the sky drawing the energies of the sky down to touch Mother Earth via his left hand
