Roudiyo la Ropa Riba

Michael Reid Murrurundi is pleased to exhibit Jill Daniels, whose dynamic and high-energy rodeo-themed paintings illuminate a striking fusion between First Nations cultural practice and contemporary life in rural communities. Her optically charged compositions pulsate with a rural optimism, serving as an ode to life in Country, where contemporary rural traditions like rodeo intersect with First Nations cultural narratives.

Based in Ngukurr, a remote community on the banks of the Roper River in southern Arnhem Land, Daniels has been refining her practice since 2003. A sister to acclaimed artist Amy Johnson, she continues to shape a distinctive visual language that speaks to the vitality and complexity of her rural environment.

Paintings by Jill Daniels are available to preview at our Sydney Gallery and appointments may be scheduled by request. For more information, please email danielsoma@michaelreid.com.au
