Fantastic to see these contemporary interpretations of traditional bark painting at the Art Gallery of New South Wales recently. Djirrirra Wunungmurra, born 1968, Arnhem region, Yukuwa 2011 is a depiction of yam tendrils and feathered flowers. Nonggirrnga Marawili, born c1939, Arnhem region, Yathikpa, 2013, is a contemporary depiction of fire.
