Nikulinsky Unfolded: Xanthorrhoea

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

An exciting new work of art from one of Western Australia's best-known botanical painters, Philippa Nikulinsky.

Take a walk with internationally renowned artist Philippa Nikulinsky through the Great Victoria Desert. In an artwork painted on a continuous piece of Japanese kozo paper, Nikulinsky depicts the regeneration process of the iconic grass tree (Xanthorrhoea thorntonii). It unfolds through time to show the elegance of unburnt leaves, and in contrast, the stark drama of bushfire-wrought sand dunes.
