Description

**Artwork by:** Jimmy Kenny Thaiday | *Series:* Kara kebile **Collection total:** 2222 | **Series total:** 279 # Kara Kebile Kara Kebile and Debe Neur depicts Torres Strait Islander dancers performing. Adorned with traditional attire and artefacts these dancers perform to songs associated with the Land, Sea and Sky. The winds, tides, seasonal change relating to birds, fish and plants. Most songs are symbolic and totemic to different regions and groups. Some songs and dance are also made from the everyday life of an Islander. Songs and dance are a big part of Torres Strait Islanders language and livelihood. My work showcases some dancers and artefacts of the Eastern Torres Strait, what we dance about and how we adorn ourselves. Different islands have different songs and dance and artefacts they use when dancing to their storyline.
