Mor Mor Mutthi Mutthi presents “Mungo Man Coming Home” – Exhibition from 23 to 29 October, Opening on Tuesday 24 October from 6 pm

My name is Mor-Mor and I am  Mutthi-Mutthi, mother born in Balranald, which is Western New South Wales, Australia.

I am the youngest of eleven children. I have two children, a son Daryl and a daughter Kaleana. I come from the Mungo Mutthi-Mutthi Tribe, my mother Mrs Alice Kelly, deceased was the custodian of Lake Mungo and the Tribal Elder of the Mungo Mutthi-Mutthi people. My father Alfred Kelly, also deceased was the Tribal Elder of the Wamba and Nyiampaa Tribes.

I have been spirit painting since my return from New Zealand in to my Mungo Mutthi-Mutthi Tribal ground in early 1993.

The presentation of my art is my spiritual link to my Sacred Lady of Lake Mungo, which dates back beyond 30,000 years. My very strong Spiritual link to my Mungo Mutthi-Mutthi Sacred Lady inspires me to create My Spiritual drawings, paintings and stories. Through my Spiritual drawings and paintings I show my Spiritual Ancestors who lived in Love, Peace and Harmony for over 40,000 years.

My spiritual Ancestors and I have affiliated with Mother Earth and my Sacred Tribal land since time Immemorial and Creation was by our Sacred Spirit.

Each drawing and bark painting tells its own distinctive individual Sacred Story and all the Sacred Stories interconnect back to the Sacred Spirit of Our Creation.

Alice Hattom Exhibition ‘WHY NOT!’ on display at the TAP 4 – 10 September, Opening Tuesday 5 September 6-8pm

Alice Hattom expressing a new age in expressionism

September 4th -10th 2017, Sydney

Sydney Expressionist’s artist Alice Hattom is having her first exhibition in Sydney and it is hitting like a summer storm in September this year, having recently returned from Venice Italy were her daughter Nadine Hattom was invited to present her works at the 57th Venice Biennale.

Born as a Mandaean in Iraq and being suppressed as a minority and as a woman in a man dominant culture, has left its impression on Alice. She has a lot of supressed emotions about social justice and fairness which you can see in her Art, you can see the releasing of these emotions in vibrant colours, and using a method of painting that has no restrictions, helps her in expressing the freedom she has longed for as a child. Mandaeans are a minority sect that has settled around the rivers of Iraq so they can continue to baptise for over 2000 years.

Artistic experimentation runs deep in the Artist’s family. Alice has an unconventional way of expressing and it shows clearly in her work of Art. Living and traveling to different parts of the world has expanded her unique and creative outlook on life in general and more so in the way she expresses and portrays unprecedented visual images of the environment and culture.

Alice Hatton Exhibition WHY NOT! will be running from the 4th of September till the tenth at The Tap Gallery 259 Riley St Surry Hill.
