2002 $1 Kangaroo 1oz Silver Proof Coin

The design featured is taken from a painting by aboriginal artist Mark Nodea. Mark belongs to the Gija tribe in the eastern Kimberley region and lives in Warmun (Turkey Creek), south-west of Kununurra in Western Australia. His paintings reflect the nearness of the Bungle Bungles, the red earthy colours of the Kimberley region and the strong traditions that are kept alive in the Warmun community through the oral re-telling of stories, corroboree and painting.
