PAST, PRESENT, FUTURE.
OLD STORIES, NEW SPIN.
Laundry Gallery is a multidisciplinary creative hub located in Darwin, Australia.
Housed in a reimagined iconic 70’s era laundromat, it represents modern iterations of Indigenous art and culture. An accessible pathway for age-old stories to co-exist with the modern world.
"This is country but you have to look at it closely to see it and that's what you have to do with culture….It's the same with my paintings.” Ben Ward paints his Country, Bilbiljm (Grasshopper Dreaming), that he explored as a young man mustering cattle at Argyle Downs Station in the East Kimberley region.
Across soft ochre landscapes, Delany traces winding creeks, billabongs, bush medicine and jilinybeng (bush cucumber), painting the Country of her grandmother while continuing a practice of learning through art.
