Aileen Napaljarri Long

Held in conjunction with Barkly Regional Arts, Paul Johnstone Gallery is proud to announce the first solo exhibition by Aileen Napaljarri Long. Born to a Warlipiri father and Warlmanpa mother, Aileen Long grew up in Willowra Community and moved to Tennant Creek in her youth. Her bold and colourful abstract depictions of bush food, in particular, wanakiji (bush tomato), recall fond memories searching for bush food with her family, common in the Barkly region particularly after big rain.
