In Indigenous Australian culture, music and art are intertwined, it is the way tradition, history, maps to family gathering places and water sources are handed down. In this tradition, many of the NOMAD TWO WORLDS artists can "sing" the "story" of their paintings, a beautiful and powerful experience for all.
