Future Perfect is proud to present the first exhibition in Singapore of the indigenous Australian artist community, Yinjaa-Barni. The exhibition will feature a diverse selection of paintings by Maudie Jerrold, Aileen Sandy and Clifton Mack. Yinjaa-Barni is a community belonging to the Yindjibarndi language group, whose ancestral homelands are located in the Pilbara region of Western Australia. For these artists, communal creation is integral to the artistic process – in the Yindjabarndi language, the community’s name means ‘staying together’.

In recent years, Yinjaa-Barni artists have developed a rich body of work that is testament to their unique culture, their surrounding landscape and their ‘Dreaming’ or ancestral cosmogony. While unmistakably grounded in their sparse and timeless local environment, the artists’ candid and intense palettes reflect a vivid engagement with modern materials and the contemporary world. Each of the artists has developed a personal style and a distinctive visual language.
