Explications pour cette peinture d'art Aborigène :
In Eric Barney’s paintings of Yankunytjatjara Country, mark-making is a form of mapping. Barney defines the terrain of his country by carving out sections of colour, the paint energetically applied to the canvas with a sense of rhythm and purpose. Barney interprets the rocky desert country around Indulkana Community through colour, tone and form. His powerfully understated paintings depict Tjukula (rock-holes), and the knowledge of these vitally important water sources that have sustained Anangu for generations.
