A unique and contemporary reflection of country is the focus of an Aboriginal art exhibition showing at Mitchell Fine Art from April 29th until June 6th
Blurring any preconceived notions of Aboriginal Art, Central Australian artist Janelle Stockman Napaltjarri was known for her innovative and experimental approach to painting.
Painting from the early 2000’s Napaltjarri’s approach to colour, composition and form was new and completely self-taught. With a passion for colour and experimentation Napaltjarri’s artworks were a response to country, the spirit of place and an expression of self rather than the depiction of that country. Her technique cast a different light on traditional Aboriginal painting.
The works in this exhibition are from the last period of her oeuvre and are testament to Janelle Stockman’s approach to how she depicted the spirit of place.
Inspired by country, this exhibition is an explosion of colour and a celebration of a young, unique, contemporary artist pushing the boundaries of Aboriginal art from Central Australia.
EXHIBITION DATES: 29th April – 6th June.
Mitchell Fine Art continues to operate Monday to Friday 10am – 5.30pm and Saturdays by appointment.
