[Dialogue] Mowanjum Pictures Anyone?

[Dharmalingam Vinasithamby]

Yes,

I do remember George and Silas at the ITI, and that digeridoo that they played during the daily office! That ITI knocked everybody's socks off!

regards,
Dharma

>Thanks, Dharma.  Many of the stunning art pieces in your 
link remind me of the bark painting George Winnigudj sent to Joe and me 
following the July - August 1969 Singapore ITI.  As you probably recall, 
George and his colleague Silas Roberts were two aboriginal "pioneers" who joined 
118 other people from across Seapac and South Asia for that first 6-week 
training program.

>George's gift to us arrived in Singapore in September 1969 in the 
midst of typhoon season. The local post office was flooded, and closed 
for days.  When we received the very waterlogged package and opened it, the 
bark was a bit buckled, but the images of crocodiles and turtles as clear 
as can be.  We still treasure that gift and the gesture of friendship 
across cultures it represents for us.
