Slipping beneath the Kimberley skin

    Abstract

    This essay reflects one part of my twelve-year experience of moving towards an understanding of Aboriginal culture as an outsider. It is the narrative of a white woman invited onto country by a Kimberley (north-west Western Australia) Elder. It reveals a sense of surrendering into the potency of the land and into another way of being. It is no easy journey.
