"This is wanakiji, bush tomatoes. Family, we go around collecting bush tucker, with crow bar. Dig 'em up. We learn from big people, from parents - dad and mum. We grew up on bush food, kanga berry, bush potato, I paint bush tuckers because I like to go out and collect them, sit out with the crowbar and dig the potato. And eat them, it's a nice taste."
