Collection: Marlene Pitjara Philomac

The art of Canteen Creek artist Marlene Philomac is recognisable for its fine brushwork and precise attention to detail. Marlene's intimate exploration of the landscape surrounding her Owairtilla (Canteen Creek) home takes a particular interest in bush flowers. Typical of the Canteen Creek style, Marlene combines carefully rendered depictions of bush medicine and flower against nets of dot work, juxtaposing the figurative and the abstract in strongly contrasting colours.
