Thugaw Pawur ( Spear Fishing along the mangroves coastline for – Azam; Rabbitfish)my image portrayal of the times growing up as a young fella, diving with my Uncles and older brothers spear fishing in & along the island’s coastal mangroves and reefs for Azam.

Within this Azam-fish image is a diver holding Bayag-Klak; a ‘bamboo one iron spear’ to depict how we fish for this fish food at home in the Torres Strait islands – Zenadh-Kes sea country.
