Sculptural installation in the form of two very large lahal sticks. Each is installed vertically, and rotates on a central axis. The 'male' stick (part a) has a wide copper band around its centre, with the Royal Proclamation of 1763 acid-etched into it. The 'female' stick (part b) has 5 copper inlay hands, each with a year acid-etched into it. Both have carved hands protruding from the main post - one pair of hands extend palm-up in the lower area; 8 fisted hands extend out, around the post, above the central area; one hand points downward from the upper area. Both sticks also have two colour-stained, wood veneer bands at each end, with inlaid abalone figures between them. The 'male' stick has 2 crown and 2 jester hat shapes between the top bands, and 2 trees and fish between the bottom bands. The 'female' stick has 2 trees and fish between its top bands, and 3 pairs of sticks between the bottom bands.
