Exhibition Overview
Ditch your fairy lights and light up this festive season with a light box from Warakurna Artists.
Continuing in the tradition of the 'History Painting' style, Warakurna artists have interpreted the theme of Christmas. Nativity scenes, Warburton Mission Times and the festive season in the modern day Warakurna Community have been painted on to wooden light boxes. The artists have strategically drilled tiny holes through their works and a lighting system has been fitted in the back resulting in the stories being beautifully 'lit up.' Having been painted on the front and sides, each of the ten light boxes has a unique sculptural quality.
Warakurna first exhibited light boxes at the annual Desert Mob exhibition in September this year where they proved to be very popular and were a standout of the exhibition.
