Bush Plum by Angelina Pwerle consists of a field of red punctuated by white dots, called dotprints, made with the points of satay sticks, bundled together and deployed in a technique known as scrunching. Its composition is non-hierarchical and de-centered, spreading evenly towards all sides. Like much of her paintings, this one represents a landscape, a togography, that is both real and mythic, specifically her patrilineal clan estate, Ahalpere, in the desert northeast of Alice Springs, which is suffused with the memories and traditions of the ancestral past. As is typical for her work, the installation of Bush Plum is flexible: there is no strict top or bottom. Infinite flexibility of installation makes for an infinite flexiblity of viewing perspective, in turn. As such, it flaunts Western conventions. The title refers to the Bush Plum ancestor, an important progenitor from the Altyerre (Dreaming) who exerts a profound influence over the Ahalpere.
