Gunybi Ganambarr is a Yolngu artist who lives and works at Gängän, near Yirrkala in north-east Arnhem Land in the Northern Territory. He began his artistic career painting on bark and larrakitj but has since extended his practice to incorporate experimental and innovative use of reclaimed materials, which include wood, rubber, glass, steel, galvanized iron, and aluminum.

The exhibition, Gunybi Ganambarr: Gapu Buḏap | Crossing the Water, presenting recent two- and three-dimensional works by this groundbreaking artist is on view at D’Lan Contemporary New York through to November 8 2024.

We were honoured to welcome Gunybi to New York for the opening of the exhibition, where he took a walk through the gallery with Manager, Lucy Foster.
