About Nugu Guwan.
In a poignant representation and reflection of the ravaging aftermath of Australian bushfires, Belynda Waugh (Bindi), has created a collection that will serve as a vital backdrop to our Australian art landscape for generations to come.
Entitled ‘NUGU GUWAN’, (translated from Bundjalung language to ‘Black Rain’), Bindi explores the way our land lives, suffers and recovers.
About the Artist.
Bindi Waugh’s unique style is informed by her Indigenous heritage as an Iman and Bundjalung woman. Bindi’s creativity expands beyond the canvas across an array of disciplines from pottery to poetry and commercial illustration. With commissioned pieces and public works, Bindi’s work is also featured internationally in private collections in countries across Europe, the United States, South Africa, Israel as well as nationally.
Bindi’s work explores contemporary Indigenous issues and has been the recipient of highly-acclaimed awards such as Max National Indigenous Art Awards and Rio Tinto Alcan Martin Hanson Memorial Art Award.
