Press Release

John Weeronga Bartoo was born in Brisbane, Australia and is an Aboriginal Australian who paints in the tradition of his ancestors, the Kooma people from South Western Queensland. He is guided by their spirits and his heart as he paints in the tradition of Aboriginal dot painting, using a stick and acrylics to conjure swirling patterns on canvas. Convoluted, textural and abstract, Bartoo's paintings tell the viewer age-old stories of his life, his family's life and his interpretations of the Dreamtime Stories.
