Title: ‘Wi Femili Biliken’
‘Biliken’ is a friend around the campfire. It boils up healing bush medicine and water for a big cuppa tea. It witnesses the cook ups and big yarns around Ngukurr. A place of cattle stations and Country, mustering and missions, bulls and barramundi.
Inspired by Maureen Hodgson’s Kriol story ‘Hanting gada biliken’ and class discussions with renowned local artist Karen Rogers, the students of Ngukurr School have created a body of work exploring important family memories. Every billycan shares a literal or figurative moment of connection.
Friday Opening Night, 5-7pm: Karen Rogers to open exhibition
Exhibition Duration: 8 Nov – 28 Nov
Exhibition: Open Wed – Fri 10-4pm, Sat 10-12pm
