Christian Thompson AO at Art Basel with Yavuz Gallery

Visit Yavuz at booth 1D39 at Art Basel Hong Kong.

'Wanga Bayi (The Stick That Won't Come Back)' is a continuation of Thompson’s signature flower walls offering a portal to his Indigenous culture and ancestral history. The various native and non-native flora dominate the imagery in this work which plays with the codes of abstraction and surrealism. The botanical constellation is a measurement of time, capturing a transient moment in the Australian landscape when the flowers are only briefly in bloom.
