seeds of creation
14th September-1st December
Plants are often seen as static inanimate resources to be used without much consideration; and yet their activities prove that they are indeed creators, providers, that turn the sun's energy into food for consumers, holding and contributing to the formation of fragile soils, capturing and storing carbon, providing water storage, and providing oxygen.
In Seeds of Creation, plants and their seeds are depicted as creators, providers that are energy-giving and vital to survival.
As creation entities their presence is animate and powerful. Warlpiri art highlights ecological interconnectivity, the diversity, abundance, fertility and beauty of plants, and their seed, as essential to the nature of Country. Enjoy this beautiful exhibition of the Jukurrpa or Dreaming Stories about plants and their seed, and the ancient relationship with people, as expressed powerfully through Warlpiri culture.
Hearth is proud to celebrate plants and seeds in Aboriginal culture, with works by Kim Wandin, Merilyn Duff, Young Art and Baluk Artists.

hot pink
Warlukurlangu Artists challenge traditional traditional of Aboriginal art, combining iconography that is thousands of years old with sizzling acrylics and a vibrating unrestricted palette. Artists took to acrylics with gusto in the mid 80's, exploring combinations of electric lime-green, neon violet, searing tangerine...with hot pink...maintaining their fascination with a playful jubilant use of flour with determination for almost 35 years.
Emerging and established artists use colour that is bold, rebellious, confident, youthful and provocative.
Hot Pink is super-saturated energy. Hot Pink will make you smile.
13th June-13th July excluding Tuesdays at Hearth Galleries

GRAHAM PATTERSON: REMEMBERING MY GREAT GREAT GRANDMOTHER
My name is Graham Patterson. I am a Taungurung Yorta Yorta man.
I’ve lived in Healesville all my life. I love painting goannas and snakes, and although I’ve lost track of my totem, I wouldn’t be surprised if it was the snake or goanna, as my paintings flow when I paint them.
My great great grandmother, Lydia Briggs, whose picture I’m holding, lived at Corranderrk. Her daughter Lizzie Edmunds was my great grandmother. Lydia Briggs died in Miloga in 1885 after being told to leave Coranderrk and to leave her children behind. When she arrived in Miloga she asked if she could return to get her children, and was told she couldn’t. This was after Superintendent Green left Coranderrk.
I love painting to keep culture alive and to paint the way I feel about being a Koorie person. If we didn’t paint we’d lose our culture and stories.

infinite - an EXPLORATION of deep space and time
In Aboriginal cosmologies, time is infinite in its duration and can be as much a part of the present and the future as it is of the past.
Contrasting with a Western lineal perspective of time, the origins and powers of the Jukurrpas (Dreaming stories) are located in place rather than time. Place provides the framework for events, provides its own memory devices and is imbued with the sacred and eternal.
Through significant works by Athena Nangala Granites and Stephen Jupurrurla Nelson this exhibition explores the power of contemporary Aboriginal artists to challenge our perceptions of and relationship to time and space, and equally to question our integration with place. These large works will be presented alongside extraordinary works by Shorty Jangala Robertson (1925-2014) who expressed his Ngapa Jukurrpa through bold iconographic statements. Through Athena's extraordinary cosmic night skies and Stephen's Janganpa Jukurrpa journeys over earth, join us to feel the power of Infinite.

Christine Nakamarra Curtis, Lola Nampijinpa Brown, Justinna Napaljarri Simms, Athena Nangala Granites, Sabrina Nangala Robertson and Walter Jangala Brown.
Through a colourful unrestricted palette, ancient iconography and the sharing of their Jukurrpa (Dreaming Stories) the artists of Yuendumu give us a powerful insight into their loving knowledge of country which is at once spiritual, sustainable, ecological, regenerative and creative. The artists' Jukurrpas are vast in time and space yet simultaneously acute, personal and immediately relevant to here and now.

THANK YOU - AN EXHIBITION BY HEARTH GALLERIES
Birthdays are a time of love, celebration and reflection. So as Hearth Galleries turns one, I feel incredibly privileged and thankful to have spent a year working with such beautiful artists and meeting so many people passionate about Aboriginal culture as they pass though the doors at Hearth Galleries and share their stories.
This is also a great time for me to introduce Scott Mitchell as my business partner. Scott grew up in small towns in Victoria, growing up with a passion for the natural world and regenerative agriculture. He has a wealth of business experience and a commitment to growing Hearth's community-building capacity.
To say thank you for your support we are making significant price reductions on selected works throughout February. This is a wonderful opportunity to purchase a beautiful piece of Aboriginal art at a very special price. Scott and I are very keen to ensure that the artists from Warlukurlangu receive their second payment for their work, which they receive when a work sells. We are also excited about making space for a very exciting exhibition coming in March....
Works by artists including Steven Jupurrurla Nelson, Pauline Napangardi Gallagher, Alice Nampijinpa Michaels, Margaret Nangala Gallagher, Theo (Faye) Nangala Hudson, Jeffrey Nangala Gallagher, Lloyd Jampijinpa Gallagher, Watson Jangala Robertson, Selma Napurrurla Leo.

ground
Deeply connected to their Dreaming stories the artists from Yuendumu and Nyirripi utilise a vibrant, often spell-binding pallet to tell the stories of the landscape, the geographical features and the plants and animals that live there. These are stories based in a deep understanding of ecological systems, survival knowledge, and a profound love and respect for the country that provides. Ground is the place over which we walk, it suggests the technique of making pigment from ochre stones, and groundedness is akin to mindfulness.
Ground is a call from the desert; an invitation towards an increased understanding of Jukurrpa, and perhaps, through our engagement with these dreaming stories, an opportunity to reflect on our own connection to place, including the ethical and cultural framework that might inform our decision-making processes.

Stories of yuendumu by sam gummer
Wednesday November 28th - Sunday 30th December
Launch 2pm Saturday 1st December
Sam Gummer's extraordinary images offer a window into the remote Aboriginal community of Yuendumu, depicting the diverse stories of the Warlpiri people, from traditional to contemporary, sombre to celebratory, creative to sacred, ancient to modern day.
From ancient Dreamtime stories, skin names, sacred ceremonies, paintings and artefacts, to modern day clothes, music, art making and social media, the story of this community comes in the form of collective narratives woven over the tapestry of time.
Gummer's work will be presented alongside artworks from Warlukurlangu Artists in Yuendumu where Sam lives and works. Sam also works for Aussie Desert Dogs, an organisation funded by the art centre, that provides veterinary assistance, food, medical care and where needed, re-homing, for Yuendumu's dog population, and also a rescue response for injured and orphaned wildlife.
Handpainted Dogs: A special part of this exhibition includes beautiful metal dogs, handpainted by the artists of Yuendumu. The metal dogs are made by inmates of the NT correctional facilities, then painted by Aboriginal artists in community. Each dog is vibrantly unique and based on the shape of a real dog that lives in Yuendumu, getting up to the usual fun and mischief around town!
