| Painting Title: Waralte Narungga
(Wardang Island Campsites) Artist: Joseph (Jo Jo) Cattermole Code: JJWI Medium: Acrylic on canvas - block mounted Size: 95cm x 60cm Price: Aud$2,800. Description: Men's hunting and
gathering on and around Waralte (Wardang Island
- near Aboriginal community of
Point Pearce, Adjahdura Land). Waralte is
a significant spiritual Dreaming place for the Adjahdura people and has
an interesting history; It was mined and farmed for half a century by
white fellas; The rabbit calicivirus was
accidently released from the Island before testing was complete; The
waters around Waralte are trecherous, with stormy weather,
sharks and reef outcrops - many ships have come to grief and lives have
been lost.
