My image of a Dhubuka Pawur – (Diving - Spear fishing for Spanish Mackerel) captures within the fish’s image a diver under water holding a Bayag Klak a ‘Bamboo one iron spear’ in pursuit pose. The other pattens are presentive of my imitations of the environment above and below the sea. This image is a diver’s under water in view of the Dhubu - Spanish-Mackrell, when diving along the Deeper coastal waters and reefs of our home island water’s of Badu, Zenadh-Kes Sea country.
