Kabul

Stainless Aesthetics is proud to have worked with Joshua Walker to design, fabricate and install the public art place marker for Gumpi/Dunwich on Minjerribah.

Kabul the carpet snake is the yuri totem ancestor for the Quandamooka People and is the protector of all the creatures of the land. As Joshua suggests, “when you look at the Kabul’s shed skin in the sunlight, you can see the colours of the rainbow in this otherwise transparent skin, revealing why the Kabul is form of the Jahgon Rainbow Serpent. Every clan in Australia has a Rainbow Serpent residing in their country, and for Quandamooka People, their Jargon resides in Gabura Blue Lake and Bummiera Brown Lake”.

This artwork draws on Quandamooka Culture, its ancient storylines and offers visitors and residents an opportunity to learn about the ancestral connections between people and places on Minjerribah.
