To celebrate Spring, Bay Gallery Home has secured a series of beautiful botanical works from the Central Desert in time for the Affordable Art Fair Hampstead Heath. We have curated a selection of them for you here.
As the only dedicated Aboriginal art gallery in the UK, we are lucky to represent Aboriginal artists living on Country with their languages, sacred sites, iconography and Dreamtime stories in tact. The remoteness of these communities and an absence of mineral wealth has helped protect them from the much of the exploitation seen in other areas.
The art centres engaged in painting their Country, bush medicine and bush tucker do soon in order to keep their stories sacred. However, the benefits of painting sales cannot be underestimated as it is their only industry. The artwork is also an important way to share knowledge with younger generations ensuring their culture is not entirely lost.
The joyful colours, fine dot work and broad brush strokes bring the canvas to life. The paintings are imbued with the history of the Country and artists’ ancestors who sing to them while they paint. You can almost feel their spirits pulsating from these artworks in a way that can’t be achieved with Western art.
During the art fair we are happy to offer you an interiors consultation to ensure you get the right art work for the living or work space you are looking to decorate.
Hampstead Heath Affordable Art Fair is May 10-14, 2023, and we invite you to secure your ticket to see these new artworks on the link below.
