We have worked together nearly all our life. When we were younger we were Stockmen working the lands, now we are Elders we paint together every day. We have been working hard for this exhibition, side by side making these paintings, we are really happy we are coming to Darwin to see them on display.
Witjiti George and Taylor Cooper are elders in their community; traditional owners who hold cultural knowledge from their fathers and grandfathers. They are two friends, two brothers painting and presenting together in this extraordinary exhibition Ka pula nyangatja Kutjaranyinanyi malparara (these two are sitting together as friends).
