Baman'ŋuwuy - From a Long Time Ago
Opening 5-18 August at Tactile Arts
Tactile Arts is proud to host Baman'ŋuwuy, part of the Outstation Gallery Art Trail.
The exhibition features new works from Joe Dhamanydji and Matthew "Teapot" Djipurrtjun - baman'ŋuwuy, from a long time ago, yet astutely contemporary.
"Old Country and knowledge, old and new, it's the same. We're still painting that old story today. But it's new," says Djipurrtjun.
"Painting is how we learn, it holds all our knowledge," adds senior artist and ceremonial leader Dhamanydji.
On display 5–18 August, Tuesday–Saturday, at Tactile Arts.
