About
Art Centre documentation for this work states:
"Ku’ Muut is the name for the short-tail dingo. It's a big story here on the southern Wik lands. There is a big flat place that looks like a salt plain and that’s where Ku' Muut the short tail story belongs. Before time, those two dingoes travelled passed this Country and left this story. You can still see it today." -
