FEATURED EXHIBIT - THE SPIRIT MAN
We are delighted to showcase the beautiful works of Wainburranga - also known as Paddy Fordham in our new online exhibit.
Wainburranga's work dealt with the many different spirits of his ancestral stories, most commonly the Mimi Spirits which represent the good, protective spirits of his ancestors and the animals of his country which often dance alongside the Mimi in his paintings.
Wainburranga's work is unique and immediately identifiable, often having large areas of flat colour contrasting against the humanoid and animal figures he most often depicted in his work.
Wainburranga's work can be found not only on canvas, but also on barks, artefacts, spirit poles, hollow logs and more. He was a versatile artist and his work is included in many of Australia's National Galleries, including taking part in an installation of 200 hollow coffin logs permanently displayed at the National Gallery of Australia in Canberra.
NEW WEBSITE UPDATES
We're regularly updating our stock with new artworks
It is our goal to regularly post new works on our website, with weekly changes being made to our stock lists. Keep checking back often to see what new works have been posted by filtering by new in our Artworks section.
We've also changed out our Featured Artist, Featured Artworks, and the Collector's Special (pictured above) which currently has a whopping 25% off the regular price. Patrick Tjungarrayi is a superb artist and this is a great price for one of his fantastic works.
While we’re still working on getting our entire catalogue online, if there is an artist or style that you’re interested in you can always get in touch with us to discuss procurement of your desired pieces. We can either find what you’re looking for in our stock or potentially source pieces for you if we don't currently have it in our collection.
UPCOMING EXHIBIT AT THE MALVERN ARTISTS' SOCIETY
20th - 30th June 2024
YOU'RE INVITED!
From the 20th of June until the 30th of the same month we will be displaying some of our fine works in a new exhibit at the Malvern Artists' Society with an opening night on the 21st including drinks and canapes.
We'd be delighted to see you there and discuss the art on show, the artists who created them, and the symbolism and stories depicted therein.
A favourite part of our work is discussing the artists and their wonderful works. We view it as our mission to shine a light on this ancient culture and the ways in which their stories are passed from generation to generation through their artwork.
WE'RE FLEXIBLE
Don't forget you can now negotiate on any artwork through the Make an Offer function that allows you to potentially get a great deal on your chosen artwork.
There are a few reasons for this change. We view it as an opportunity to connect and open a dialog with you, to provide a more approachable service to you, and to adjust for the increased cost of living.
Artwork is often seen as a luxury item but has such a positive impact on our daily lives when we can enjoy it, and we at Red Desert Dreamings want to continue to make our products as accessible as possible for you.
DONT FORGET ABOUT OUR PARTNERS
Art Money allows you to purchase art from us on an installment plan, offering you the flexibility of paying over time, while delivering us the price of purchase immediately - they call it their 'Win Win Business Model'.
This service is currently available in Australia, New Zealand, the UK, and the US with more countries to come.
