I’ve just returned from the Limmen Bight on the Territory side of the gulf of Carpentaria where there’s a bit of a storm building over proposed mining activity in the area, you can see more of the photos and read the story here.

This magisterial work by Gulf Artist Simon Normand lays out the Traditional Owners claims of the sacred sites that will be disturbed by a proposed pipe line across the gulf to Maria Island.
