Goorlil is a word used by the Bardi ‘Saltwater’ people meaning turtle. The Bardi people are from the Dampier Peninsula situated around 200 kilometres north-east of Broome, Western Australia. They are coastal people who have looked to the land, open waters, tidal flats and mangrove creeks for thousands of years for food, law and traditions. Even to this day Bardi people continue to practice their culture and to live this way of life.
About Framed Prints:
Finely-crafted custom frames create stunning art pieces from RedBubble prints. Frames are crafted from quality timbers in a range of finishes. A white, off-white or black matte surrounds the print to emphasize the artist’s work and bring the piece to life. Premium ultra-clear perspex in front provides a superior finish and means the piece is lighter and easier for you to move without breaking.
Each print is available in 5 seasons:
Monsoon Print – Black White.

I like how you’ve achieved an immediate watery effect in this image…..very fluid, I can feel the current.

this is absolutely beautiful. i’m fascinated how aboriginal art from certain countries often resemble each other. (especially northwest-coast native american art with certain pacific art.)

Very beautiful!

I like the colours, but B&W really brings out the design. I would have to agree with Andrea – you can really feel the movement of the Goorlil (plural?)
