Aboriginal people have long been nurturers and observers of the natural cycle of life in the bush. Knowledge of flowering plants provides inside information on food resources and bush medicines as well as the location of surface water. Knowing the life cycle of plants helps understand when the fruits and seeds will be ready to harvest. Hunters need to know that animals attracted to those plants will move towards those areas when the food resources are abundant. The entire flow of life in the bush gravitates around an understanding of the plants that sustain life.
Represented artists include Belinda Golder Kngwarreye, Alison Munti Riley, Michelle Possum Nungurrayi, Karen Bird Ngale, Jessie Beasley, Rosemary Petyarre, Rachael Nambula and Katrina Bird Mbitjana. The exhibition Bush Garden is on display at Japingka Gallery until 14 May 2025.
