CreatorMadigan ThomasTitleBaula-wah (Violet Valley)Date2003MediumOchre on canvasDimensions50cm x 100cmArtist StatementI have painted the top part of my country where I was born - Baula-wah (Violet Valley). The high mountains are dangerous in the wet time. The old people would leave some food in the nowans (caves) in case they had to stay there for a while until the water went down when they travelled through there. This part of the country is called Kangalun - further down to the south is damper Creek and the flatland where the homestead is.Accession NumberG2020.7.5Access AdviceFor research purposes only.
