HOME — What's On
Saturday 19 October - Sunday 10 November 2024
In the Bunurong seasons, Spring has three distinct sections: early Spring (August-mid September); mid Spring (mid-September to mid-October) and late or "true" Spring (mid-October to mid-November).The word for all is Pareip. This exhibition brings together more than 40 works of art from five regions across the continent featuring plants, wildlife and Country in celebration of Pareip (True Spring).
Ernabella artist Jeffrey Lewis insightfully captures the characters of the birds of his community with panache, as does Bunurong elder Mark Brown. Lyrically detailed, plant-filled landscapes by the Artists of Ampilatwatja relate the country on which their Dreaming stories sit. Talented Mimili Maku Arts newcomer Beverly Downs paints the trees of her lands in sweeps of brilliant colour, while Anita Pumani and Betty Mula's glowing works bring to life the plants and dreaming stories of their Country with skilled assurance.
Utopia artists Carolyn Petrick Kngwarreye's shimmering seed dreaming works mesmerise with layers of fine dots and Selena Teece Pwerle's high-keyed canvases depict the rivers, landforms and red sands of her grandfather's Country with the knowledge born of a lifetime's observation.
This exhibition is open Friday to Sunday, from 11am - 4pm.
