When other artists tend to favor a very sober palette, sometimes reduced to black and white, Gloria Petyarre shows us here with a very colorful work celebrating the leaves of a tree with medicinal properties.
After picking the leaves, women grind them to obtain a milky substance that helps cure coughs, colds and headaches when applied to the temples.
