Christopher Allen’s piece on our exhibition Yiwarra Kuju: The Canning Stock Route in the Weekend Australian Review was quite a spray. OK, Christopher, mon semblable, mon frère, you’re bored by the building. But let’s move on, shall we? Let’s imagine the building filled with things – things through which the past shines! We are working on it. I am glad you were able to overcome your aversion to come up with your concluding idea: ‘[In these paintings] what speaks to the Western viewer is … a sense of the numinous that modern art has largely forgotten’. Numinous – beautiful word!
