Emily Kame Kngwarreye made *Wild (Blue) Flower* with paint, no one really knows when. It's interesting to imagine the painting coming into being, shifting and emerging, like a flower, through trial, error, and intuition. You know, painting has this ability to let you see, think, and experience the world in a totally different way. The color is thin, diluted almost, and it gives the impression of blossoms floating up towards the sky. There’s something so delicate and powerful about it. The artist’s breath must have infused each of these marks. These painters, they're all in conversation across time, inspiring one another's creativity. I feel like painting offers us embodied expression. It's ambiguous, it's uncertain, but allows for multiple meanings over fixed ones.
