Cooee art is proud to present Dorothy Napangardi: And They Danced Their Way Across Country, a survey of works by Dorothy Napangardi. The exhibition will be on view from 20 October - 10 November 2018 at Cooee Art Paddington.
Dorothy’s early artistic endeavors were heavily influenced by memories of her childhood. Her subject matter consisted principally of the Bush Plum and Bush Banana, wild fruits that grow in abundance near Mina Mina, changing in colour as they ripen, depicted in vibrant acrylic tones. Her early paintings swiftly marked Dorothy as an artist of great talent. Her superb sense of composition created a rhythmic effect as semi-naturalistic depictions were entwined in an altogether geometric formation.
