A Kelp Basket on a Path to Rocky Cape

Rocky Cape is a place of great significance to the Aboriginal people, with its caves and middens. The basket was made by Vicki West in an exhibition of work inspired by the traditional skills of Aboriginal women at Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery. The rocks and sandy soil of this area provide an endemic home for the Banksia serrata, being the only place that this plant is found in Tasmania.
