‘To the time of our ancestors’
The museum says the exhibit showcases over 90 paintings on eucalyptus that "chronicles the rise of a globally significant art movement as told from the perspective of the Yolŋu people." The paintings represent songlines, sung stories, through rich depictions, lovingly rendered in natural pigments.
"The stories and the songlines take you back to the time of our ancestors," writes Wanyubi Marika, a prolific artist and ambassador of the Yolŋu people. For more information, please visit here.
