Qantas Art Aircraft 'Emily Kame Kngwarreye'

The Emily Kame Kngwarreye 787 Dreamliner is the fifth aircraft in the Qantas-Balarinji flying art series. Balarinji created the fuselage design based on the internationally renowned artist Emily Kame Kngwarreye’s 1991 painting ‘Yam Dreaming’. More than 5000 individual dots identical in shape and placement to the original painting, were meticulously applied to achieve the sight lines from the ground and the air of a faithful representation of the original painting. The colours draw from Emily's palette, and reflect the Central Australian landscape of her birth and life.
