"The dog belongs to my grandmother's story place. The brolga is my grandmother's totem. The eagle is the totem in the Archer River, near my country. The name of the eagle in Wik-Mungkan is Kang Kang. The dugong belongs to a story place off the coast at the mouth of the Love River. The designs on the figures are those painted onto people's bodies in ceremony, and onto sculptures." -- Garry Namponan
