Roy Hunter Wiggan Ilma - Manawan (White Gum Tree) 2003
Acrylic on plywood, wool and wool fibre 1000 x 1370mm $4000
It's the white gum tree - there are 2 types - one is marorlal - this is manawan. It shows the flower opening. When
it's ripe to blossom it's how it appears. The middle piece shows how the flower comes out. The lower piece shows
how the flower is round. These gum trees proliferate in the Bardi country and are a real spectacle when they are in flower.
