Walkatjunanyi Inmaku (Painting Songs)
An exhibition of this magnitude has never been seen before from Tjungu Palya Arts, with each painting being 200 x 300 cm in size. This larger format allows abundant space for sprawling and epic narratives, which depict large tracks of country and demonstrate fundamental cultural thinking. This scale also allows the artists the freedom to weave a spectacular amount of painterly detail into their work. The nuanced mark-making of each individual artist sets a unique and sophisticated tone within each artwork, and represents a strong spiritual connection, to both the act of painting and the process of narrating ones’ mythological beliefs.
The exhibition runs from Wednesday 5 April to Saturday 27 May 2017. Attending the opening reception, on Wednesday 5 April, are Tjungu Palya artist Teresa Baker, with the art centre managers, Benji Bradley and Liz Bird.
