What’s In The Stockroom? Bush Turkey Dreaming

Calendar February 11, 2012 11:33 by author Nick Fintan



Bush Turkey Dreaming

Michelle Possum

Acrylic on linen

60 x 115 cm

$2655

Bush Turkey Dreaming is a fabulous work by Michelle Possum, daughter of the great Clifford Possum Tjapaltjarri. What interests me about Michelle's work is she painted alongside her father from an early age and inherited his use of bold iconography. She has now infused this tradition with her own sensibilities of vivid colour. Her inspiration for this is the unique central desert landscape. What I enjoy about Bush Turkey Dreaming is the melding of ancient symbolism and a fresh modern use of colour and composition.
