Waii Jellyfish Totem Ghostnet Sculpture

This story is about all the Waii (jellyfish) we see in our waters and that wash up on our beaches.  This story comes from my mother’s country at the mouth of the Holroyd River. We are not allowed to take Tea-Tree bark from any of the trees except for one big, old tree.  We are not allowed to cut wood for spears from the big tree. If my father caught someone doing this, they would be in big trouble, and possibly get speared or beaten. We rip the bark off the big tree and use it for many purposes such as making bowls, sleeping mats, plates and starting fires.
