ABOUT THE SEPIK:

The Sepik River is the longest river on the island of New Guinea. For most of its lower course the river meanders through a wilderness of sago and nipa palm swamp and lagoons with large floating islands of vegetation drifting in the channel. The amount of sediment carried down this channel is so great that the waters of the ocean are discoloured for 20 miles beyond the mouth, whi

ch is more than 1 mile wide. Along the banks of the river and its many tributaries live sparsely scattered, remote villages, scarcely contacted by the outside world. More than 250 languages are spoken. The river has formed the basis for food, transport trade, and culture. The isolation of the river’s small tribal groups from external influences has given rise to one of the most original and extensive artistic traditions in Oceania.
