About the Book

Mowanjum will always be in my memories especially the people, the culture and the beautiful country the Mowanjum mob came from.
Mary-Lou Divilli

This is a lively and richly illustrated book produced to mark the 50th anniversary of the Mowanjum Aboriginal Community.

Mowanjum shares the Wandjina traditions in songs, myth, stories and poems alongside more than 100 photographs of contemporary community members. It is a tribute their strength of spirit and an expression of confidence in the future.

A special project funded by the Mowanjum Artists Spirit of the Wandjina Aboriginal corporation
