70x45 Natural ochre and pigments on canvas
Purchased from Warmun Art Centre
This is an original late painting by the listed Australian Aboriginal artist Marika Mung (born 1987).It was sold through the Warmun Art Centre which is owned and run by the Gija people to promote their culture. In art, the Gija people are known for using natural pigments and ochre in their works which are based on the tradition of Ngarranggarni, or Dreaming stories. Generally, with contemporary artists the re-sale value is less than the original primary gallery sale price. The estimate is based on actual past recorded auction sales.
