This suite of woodblocks is the outcome of collaboration between Mulkun Wirrpanda and John Wolseley. Mulkun Wirrpanda is a senior female artist for the Dhudi-Djapu clan from Dhuruputjpi. She has been making a comprehensive series of barks and larrakitj about the poorly recognised food plants of Northeast Arnhem Land. Innovation occurred when John sent Mulkun some slabs of ancient Huon pine. She began to carve the rare plants into the wood - the nature of which with its textural grains and nuances lent itself to her topic. Later these large planks of wood where taken by John to his home studio in Victoria where he acted as her printmaker.

Exhibition Dates: 1 November – 30 November 2015
