"Minamina Dreaming - Minamina Juk", Acrylic Contemporary Aboriginal Painting

2019

About the Item

Kitty Napanangka Simon Minamina Dreaming - Minamina Juk, 2019 Acrylic on canvas 120 x 150 cm Simon employs optic whites and an array of pastels to capture the feeling and colour of the desert flowers, and its natural features surrounding the salt plains of Mina Mina, a salt lake 600 kilometers to the south of Lajamanu. Mina Mina is a women's dreaming site that is sacred for Warlpiri women of the Napangardi and Namanangka skin groups. It is the subject of many of Simon's paintings. The dreaming describes a creation story in which women of all ages sing and dance day and night, bringing life to everything from rain clouds, waterholes to plant life and animals. Simon's early experiences during a traditional desert walking life combined with her present life in Lajamanu NT, Australia, as well as her depth of knowledge of Walpiri culture is the magic combination that defines her style and her masterly use of colour.

  • REFLECTIONS 1 - Contemporary Atmospheric Landscape, Modern Seascape Painting
    By Grzegorz Wójcik
    Located in Salzburg, AT
    A few words of the artist about his art: When i painting landscapes, I usually choose simple geometric arrangements, contrasts of verticals and levels. I juxtapose the smooth surface of the sky with the rough texture of earth or grass. I paint symmetrical reflections in water and rhythmic repetitions of trees. Even an ordinary, seemingly uninteresting fragment of the suburban landscape hides a beauty that I want to see and then transfer to the canvas. I am inspired by nature because it contains a hidden secret of existence. For me, painting it is a reflection on life and passing away. It is an attempt to capture the imperceptible essence, to paint what cannot be seen. I think that my paintings can be a respite, an antidote for a man tired of technology, constant rush, hustle and bustle of the city. Grzegorz Wójcik...
