White Gums

This artwork was created during the bush food and medicine Wanti’s (women’s) camp of 2024, held collaboratively by Martumili Artists and Kanyirninpa Jukurrpa. Focused around a bush camp at White Gums held in 2024, Martumili Artists and KJ rangers have collaborated on a body of creative and cultural works that explore and demonstrate the importance of traditional bush food and medicine for Martu. Camps and the working exhibits foster opportunities for Martu led intergenerational learning, and showcase the ways in which both ranger and artistic work is embedded in maintaining Warrarnku Ninti (knowledge of Country). During the camp Martu knowledge and narratives of linyji (termite pavement nests) were explored and how they have been ingeniously utilized for generations for food processing, healing and ceremony.
