Warlawoon Country – Kathy Ramsey, 2022
$2,040.00
Within this artwork Kathy has described a place known as Warlawoon – it is located between two stations, these are known to be Bedford Downs and Tableland St. This was where Kathy’s father and renowned artist and elder Rammey Ramsey had grown up.
Although minimal in appearance, the artist’s artwork are laden with meaning – as Kathy paints the hills, camping places and the waterholes of this country.
The water holes are seen as the circles coloured in yellow ochres – as well as the hills, whereas the camping places are located on the bottom of artwork described in red square like figure, surrounded by tree’s that the artist has painted within each corner of artwork- seen in green fern like shapes.
Today Kathy now lives in the community of Juwurlinji otherwise known as (Bow River), north of Warlawoon. However this work is forever infused with the memory of and longing for Warlawoon. Beyond depictions of place, these paintings act as reminders of the impact of pastoral occupation on Gija homelands.
