Unveiled after eighty years, a remarkable collection of 800 crayon drawings by 16 Aboriginal stockmen at Birrundudu Station in northern Australia, depicting stories, spirit figures, and desert landmarks. The artworks, discovered in a Perth museum storeroom, have been traced back to their creators and their descendants, evoking pride and a deep connection to lost elders. The drawings, created during a time of hardship on cattle stations, are now on display at the Berndt Museum, inspiring new works and keeping cultural knowledge alive.
