"Dhayaanduul Waanda"
“First Lesson: Dhayaanduul Waanda” by Brett Garling. “Coming up onto the escarpment and looking down into the gorge, it was almost breath-taking. I thought, well, where I was actually standing was the place where my sculpture was to be situated. […] The site was a sacred Aboriginal site, but what particularly took my interest was that it was used as an Aboriginal hunting ground and cap site. I came up with the idea of a father teaching his son about the gorge and its uses as far as hunting. I came up with the idea of the young child sitting on the father’s shoulders and him sitting on top of the gorge, pointing down into it.” [“Sculptures in the Scrub”, The Pilliga, NSW]
