On display from February 2nd to July 14th, this collection, curated by Yolŋu Aboriginal Australian artists, showcases the rich heritage and artistic legacy of Yirrkala, with many pieces making their international debut.

Earlier this week we had the pleasure of visiting Kluge-Ruhe’s newest exhibit. Located offsite at the Rotunda, “WAŊUPINI: Clouds of Remembrance and Return” showcases the works of Yolŋu artists Nawurapu Wunuŋmurra and daughter, Bulthirrirri Wunuŋmurra.
Each piece tells an ancestral tale of the journey of souls from ocean to cloud, and the beautiful dance of sunset and farewell.
