Dominique McKenzie is a contemporary Aboriginal artist with Ngadju, Wongutha and Ngaanyatjarra heritage whose artwork has featured on community murals and in many public buildings and private collections. Dominique paints in a bold modern style interspersing traditional dot painting. He likes to experiment with new techniques to tell ancient dreamtime stories passed down from his grandparents, parents and uncles, and is passionate about passing on knowledge and culture to his daughters and other Aboriginal youth that may still be on a journey of cultural identity.
Painted in consultation with Heartwalk for the 2016 Museum of the Goldfields Open Day.
