Banduk Marika's art is more than paintings | Walking Together | ABC Australia

Banduk Marika is an award-winning Yolngu printmaker and bark painter. Travel with her into the bush as she gathers materials and teaches her children and grandchildren important lore.

This Place: Artist Series follows Six Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander artists across Australia who share their connections to country and how it inspires their art and identity.

These award-winning artists work hang in galleries around the world, including the National Gallery of Australia. In each episode they take us far from the bright lights of the art world to the places where their artmaking begins.
