Hairstring 2010

"Hairstring" is a vibrant abstract painting by the Australian artist Makinti Napanangka, created in 2010. The painting features a series of horizontal stripes in a bold orange hue, contrasted against a black background, creating a striking visual effect. The brushstrokes are loose and expressive, conveying a sense of movement and energy. Napanangka's work is often characterized by its bold use of color and its connection to her Indigenous heritage, and this painting is no exception. It is a powerful example of the artist's signature style, exploring themes of landscape, culture, and the spiritual world.
