Revisions: Made by the Warlpiri of Central Australia and Patrick Waterhouse (UK)

Over a period of ten years, groups of Warlpiri artists in Yuendumu and Nyirripi (hundreds of kilometres northwest of Alice Springs) collaborated with internationally acclaimed London-based photographer to revise a collection of maps, flags, photographs, comic illustrations and other archival material. The body of work emerging from this collaboration questions and amends the assumptions inscribed throughout the old documents. It adds information missing from the historical record, and gives voice to the stories of the original custodians of the land, passed down from generation to generation.

An Australian premiere, Burrinja presents a major exhibition of these works, curated by Warlukurlangu Artists and Patrick Waterhouse.
