The Wandjina is the supreme spirit being of the Wororra, Ngarinyin and Wunumbul people. Many of these people make their home at Mowanjum, near Derby in Western Australia.

Wandjina art from Mowanjum was one of the first art forms established in the Kimberley. David Mowaljarlie, a Ngarinyin man, encouraged many people to paint and set up a sales point in the Mowanjum Art Store in the 1970s.

Mowanjum Artists Spirit of the Wandjina Aboriginal Corporation (MASWAC) now carries on that work by providing materials and access to the marketplace for the Mowanjum Wandjina artists.

Donny Woolagoodja's original design of the Wandjina Spirit Namaralie recreated as a 35 metre high sculpture for the Sydney 2000 Olympic Games Opening Ceremony.
