description:

Over the last 6 years ReDot Fine Art Gallery has pursued a focused and determined goal of bringing the most important and modern Australian Indigenous art to the shores of Singapore, educating the public of this vibrant and fast evolving art movement. With this in mind, in late July and August we are pleased to announce the 1st ever exhibition of poles and barks from the Buku-Larrnggay Mulka Art Centre, established formally in 1975.

Fittingly, ‘Returning to Djakapurra’ will mark the rising of this established award winning art centre by showcasing 19 magnificent poles from this coastal refuge and 27 exquisitely handcrafted ochre barks from established and emerging Yolngu people. The show will be attended by Wukun WANAMBI and Will Stubbs, as they add a special touch to the event and share their stories of living in remote Aboriginal communities. The show also works by Gulumbu YUNUPINGU, Wolpa WANAMBI, Djirrirra WUNUNMURRA, Garawan WANAMBI, Barrupu YUNUPINGU and Barayuwa MUNUNGGURR.
