Ten Canoes: Rex Greeno

Ten Canoes: Rex Greeno

THE LITTLE GALLERY
Exhibition Dates: 15 March – 28 April 2013

Rex Greeno’s intriguing, meticuously hand crafted paperbark canoes vividly revive a Tasmanian tradition, illustrating that Aboriginal islanders remained as at home on the water as on the land. Studiously researched and constructed using all-natural and locally sourced fibres, one of these beautiful works of cultural art will be exhibited in each of the Ten Days Festival towns.
