Description

James Pwerle (20th century) Ignames de la brousse / Bush Yam circa 1993 Acrylic on linen canvas 86 x 52.5 cm Provenance: > Galerie Boomerang, Netherlands > Peter Madden Collection Accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from Western Desert Aboriginal Art Gallery Bush yams grow underground in areas of permanent artesian water. The artist has illustrated the plant and the journeys of the women who search for and dig up the root vegetable. It is a very important source of food, and is cooked over coals. The junction of the two circles indicates that there are two distinct important sites for finding this food and that people move between the two, allowing time for the other to recover and let the roots produce more food.
