Bark painting

A Yolngu artist from central Arnhem Land painted this kangaroo. The artist presumably wished to depict the kangaroo as a source of food. All the useful parts of the animal are shown. The artwork has a clear educational purpose and is intended to show young people how a kangaroo can be sliced in order to share it with family members.
