Buku-Larr\u014bgay Mulka Centre is the Indigenous community controlled art centre of Northeast Arnhem Land. Located in Yirrkala, a small Aboriginal community on the northeastern tip of the Top End of the Northern Territory, approximately 700km east of Darwin.<\/p>\n

The Yol\u014bu artists from this region have established a worldwide reputation for excellence and are well known for their bark paintings and memorial poles (larrakitj)<\/p>\n

“Yol\u014bu worldview sees every species of plant, animal, fish, bird or any place or person as belonging to one of the two balancing halves of the world (moieties); Yirritja or Dhuwa. The sacred art of this region details the spiritual forces behind the ongoing Creation and continuing identity of the fresh and saltwater country of the Miwatj region \u2013 a very special part of Australia”<\/p>\n
