Collection: Rochelle Ngwarraye Bonney

Epenarra artist Rochelle Bonney uses blocks of colour, rendered through dots and painterly brush strokes to depict the important natural landmarks of Iytwelepenty (the Davenport Ranges). Rochelle's works often return to the banks of Frew River, an ephemeral river that runs nearby Wutungarra (Epenarra) during the wet season and frequently dries up in the cooler months. Rochelle is a member of a young group of emerging artists from the community who have been significantly influenced by their elders, but who explore familiar themes with their own contemporary take on the art centre's distinctive visual language.
