Abstract
This interview took place in a back room of the Boomalli Aboriginal Artists Coop,
Abercrombie St, Sydney, on the 10th February, 1995, surrounded by easels
and half·complete works of art, the paint smell bringing back all the fond
memories of working with paint. The first time I visited Boomalli was to choose
a work for the cover of a forthcoming book on Aboriginal history. Hetti told me
this was the room the artist, Harry Wedge, used for a studio. Hetti, who I had
first met as an undergraduate student at the University of New South Wales
some years ago, was now about a month off having her third child. I had not
met Brenda before, but had heard of her as a key figure in the NSW art world.
