Benengoogwalem
Benengoogwalem i s my traditional country, it is the place where a freshwater spring bubbles up from on top of the ridge and splits into two little creeks. There is a waterhole here surrounded by Nhal nhal - waterlillies. The creeks join up as they flow towards Moonoomoorrem - the Keep River.

Note: This etching is number 49 of an edition of 50. The three plates for this etching were created during a workshop conducted by Northern Editions at Waringarri Aboriginal Arts in April 2008. This work forms part of a collectors folio titled the Waringarri Suite available through the gallery.
