Indigenous Art from the South-West

from the collection of Sue and Ian Bernadt


These paintings by Indigenous artists from the South-West speak of a passion for place and often have a surreal, spiritual longing for an Arcadian past. The Carrolup style has had a profound influence on artists of the region as it so perfectly captures the distinctive natural world of southern Western Australia.

Guy and Margaret Vinciguerra celebrate the ancient and contemporary butting up against

each other in Rome, finding beauty in the ordinary and the monumental.

Guy’s exuberant photographs compliment Margaret’s abstracted paintings. Partners in life

and art, they share a love of colour and a love of Roma.

On show 8-30 May
