GLEN MACKIE | 'Dheri' | 2024 | Acrylic painting Pam Galeano Brian’s work is held inDhari Headdress "This paint is about the Dhari. In the western and central island we call it "Dhari" and in the eastern island they call "Dheri". But this painting is about the War Headdress it's a bit small and it does not have the fishtail on end and it not flat like the dancing Dhari. It curves around your face from the side it looks like American Indian headdress and only the warriors were the War Dhari or Dheri " Glen Mackie (Kei Kalak) Kulkalgal
