Wirtu'wirtulinya : Three Sisters

Next date: Friday, 30 April 2021 | 10:00 AM to Sunday, 04 July 2021 | 04:00 PM

Wirtu'wirtulinya - Three Sisters brings together the work of Jade Cicak, Taya Biggs and Elisha Mangal whose work collectively explores what it means to be a proud Barkandji woman today. 

Jade Cicak comes from five generations of women artists on her mother’s side of the family. Her practice draws on both sides of her family, her strong Barkandji culture and her great-grandmother’s Austrian heritage.

Taya Biggs has always been making art as a way to educate and share Barkandji histories with the younger ones. Her work is inspired by Country, the Barka and her family, weaving stories through her intricate and detailed paintings.

Elisha Mangal is a Barkandji, Fijian-Indian woman who was born in Mount Druitt. She is now based in Mildura and helps operate Miiki Puuri Mandi Aboriginal Art, with her partner, Corey Payne.
