Reclaiming the Narrative by Nawula
Acrylic on canvas, 2022
This painting was inspired by ‘Dark Emu’ by Bruce Pascoe. In the book he challenges misconceptions held about the way Aboriginal peoples lived prior to invasion. We were not just ‘hunter-gatherers’, we built sophisticated structures and knew how to manage the land. Reading this book was a profound eye opener for the artist and this painting is an abstract perspective of Aboriginal agricultural use of the land from a birds eye view.
