Kudditji Kngwarreye

My Country, 2014

Acrylic on linen  
141 x 87 cm
56 x 34 in

Kudditji paints his country where he remembers taking the younger boys through their initiation ceremonies. He would teach them about the emu ancestors and at the same time how to hunt emu. This is the country he paints. Powerfully rich in colour, this piece has a calm but commanding energy. Soft pinks contrast the thick greys and whites, harmonised through raw brush strokes. This luminous piece with its touches of peachy hues has a great depth unique to Kudditji’s practice. He has been compared to the Abstract Expressionist Mark Rothko due to his utilisation of bold colours and geometric forms.
