Scorpian shield 3/30

2016
hand coloured intaglio vinyl
57x30cm

The Scorpian shield is the North Queensland traditional tribal design. The round shape in the centre shows the scorpians stomach, the two sharp points going up are his two front legs and two sharp points going down are his two bottom legs. The triangles inside the scorpian design must be used by Indigenous North Queensland artists within the themes in their work. The Scorpian symbolises courage, strength, wisdom, honour and independence. DJumbun (scorpian) is a central totem for the Yidinji people.
