Exhibitions on Screen | Martumili Artists: Mirrka
Martumili Artistsʼ Mirrka (Bush Food) exhibition presents traditional types of bush tucker, their habitats, and their related hunting and gathering methods.
Whilst desert life has moved away from mobile hunter-gatherer subsistence throughout the course of the twentieth century, bush tucker continues to be a significant component of the modern Martu diet. Hunting and gathering bush tucker remains equally valuable as an important cultural practice that is passed on intergenerationally, and still practiced today.
