		In Kantschelis Werken ist zudem ein gleichsam vokaler Charakter auch in den instrumentalen Partien spürbar.
		In den Morgengebeten“ von Gija Kantscheli bauen sich die Akkorde aus einem ruhigen Unisono auf, als könne ihnen keine Tendenz des Materials etwas anhaben: eine Wirkung, die man in der Musik des Komponisten allenthalben zu spüren meint — als wollte sie nur die Endlichkeit der Stille bewußtmachen.

		Since the establishment of the community, neighbouring station owners have firmly restricted Gija people from “goin’ country” – the time spent camping, walking or hunting throughout the Gija’s wider homelands.
		In the last fifteen years this need to sustain Gija culture, has led to the instigation of a most stunningly unique art practice.

	Prime Minister of Turkey Creek knew old ways - Obituaries - smh.com.au
		THE passing of the Gija artist and elder Hector Jandany has affected many people deeply, from his life-long mates at Warmun (Turkey Creek) in the Kimberley region of Western Australia to the many gardyia, or white people, who have been touched by his wit and the beauty of his paintings.
		Jandany was one of the few surviving members of the first generation of ochre artists and storytellers who began painting on the banks of Turkey Creek in the mid-1970s and whose influence can be seen in the work of many Gija artists painting today in the Kimberley.
		The story of the Kimberley for the Gija in his lifetime was one of desperate struggle and dispossession but his natural inclination was to see good and to use the teaching of traditional stories and language to tryto keep young family members on track.
