Mitiji – Square Canvas Print

Description

I grew up n a little Aboriginal community on the edge of the desert and this painting was completed alongside a fellow Martu artist from Wiluna. We sat down in the red dust together, it was 46℃, our canvases and bodies moved with the shifting shade. Outwardly, and oddly, this painting was inspired by doilies: that delicate kitsch nonsense of white women. But inwardly my work evokes the intimate relationships and intricate patterns inherent in place. My work collapses space as if the landscape itself was not something of estrangement and distance but something of tactility and imminence. My style is drawn from an emerging Australian-Asian cultural exchange and speaks a new visual language of belonging and connection.
