Linda Syddick Napaltjarri @ Japingka Gallery

Event Title: Linda Syddick Napaltjarri

Participating Artists: Linda Syddick Napaltjarri.

Venue: Japingka Gallery, 47 High Street, Fremantle.

Description: When Linda Syddick Napaltjarri was a child growing up near Lake
McKay on the border between WA and the Northern Territory, there were no
white people in her Aboriginal world. Her family soon had to leave due to a
massive drought.

Linda Syddick has collected stories of a lifetime into a series of images
that represent major turning points in her life. Her stories of desert
survival are direct from the voice of someone who was there. Linda Syddick
draws on metaphysical stories she learned in the mission settlements and
fused them with her desert memories of Tingari Creation events.

Dates: 21 November 2014 to 23 December 2014.
Opening Times: Mon- Fri, 10 - 5.30pm: Sat- Sun 12-5pm.
