Tiwi bird carvings are hand made from ironwood and decorated with natural earth pigments. Referred to as Tokampini. They are present throughout the major creation story of the Tiwi people. Tokampini were mortal beings who acted as witnesses, messengers, mourners, informers, and lawmakers..
Each beautiful bird is unique with their own character and reflect the rich cultural heritage of the Tiwi Islands.
