Chooky Dancers - Zorba the Greek - Mornington Island Festival 2013

Chooky Dancers - Zorba the Greek
Mornington Island Festival 20-22 September 2013

The Chooky Dancers come from Elcho Island, North East Arnhem Land in the Northern Territory. Famous for their performance of Zorba the Greek, not one of the Chooky Dancers owns a computer. But their foot-shuffling, pelvis-thrusting moves have made them internet stars.
The Mornington Island Festival began around 30 years ago as a way to restore culture and conduct ceremony and connect with other Gulf communities. This makes it one of the oldest -- if not THE -- oldest indigenous Festival in Australia.

Shutterstorm Photography's, Farley Ward attended the festival to run the Digital Dreaming Project and capture the highlights of the event. Special thanks to Mission Australia, GCIS, Bundarra Sportswear, Blackawear Indigenous Proucts, Deadly Divas and YES - Youth Empowerment Services.
