Ethan-James Kotiau "Iningai - Baru #3"

Size: 152 x 101 cms. Composition: Acrylics on Canvas. Raised on Iningai country near Longreach, Ethan James Kotiau paints the landscapes of his people with reverence and a deep sense of purpose. His intricate works of interwoven painted lines and meticulous dots convey the journeys of thousands of generations of Iningai (Yiningayi) across their vast traditional lands in Central Queensland. The stories contained in this arid 50,000 square kilometre territory, stretching east to Barcaldine and north to Aramac and Muttaburra, provides a potent well of inspiration for Kotiau.
