Cutting the ribbon

This version of Buda-dji has been passed onto the artist from his Great Great Grandmother Queen Maggie Donahue, “Nuwarri”, and her people of Djabugay.

The aboriginal people from the Tablelands, Mareeba, Kuranda, Mossman, Cairns and Yarrabah all share affiliation with the dreamtime story of the Carpet Snake “Buda-dji”. The story of the Carpet Snake varies between the different tribes of their region.
