In Conversation: Caring for Country and Bark Paintings

How Bark Paintings are Created & How to Care for Them.

Join us at Booth A09 for an engaging conversation with Art Leven Director Mirri Leven, celebrated Tiwi artists Carol and Alison Puruntatameri, and the Coordinator of Munupi Arts. Together, they will discuss the cultural significance and creative process behind Tiwi bark paintings, from harvesting natural materials on Country to the rhythmic painting techniques passed down through generations. The panel will also share practical advice on how to care for and display bark paintings in a respectful and lasting way, offering collectors and enthusiasts insight into both the cultural but also how to care for, hang and display these powerful works.
