Abstract:
Catalogue of eighty bark paintings which is the work of forty-seven Yolnu artists from north-east Arnhem Land. When a sacred area was desecrated by an illegal barramundi fishing camp, this incident began the monumental story of these paintings set against a backdrop of national legal and political maelstrom.
