Joondalup Bindi Bindi
Sharyn EGAN: artist
Nacaduba biocellata or the Two-spotted Blue Line is one of the totems for Nyoongar people in the Joondalup area. In my work I am interested in the relationships between people and place, our traditional Nyoongar totemic attachments and the impact that humans are having on the natural habitats that animals such as the Bindi Bindi call home.
