The day Bowie came to my outback town
An alien lands in Carinda, NSW.
Mary Leunig is an artist and self-described recluse living in regional Victoria. She comes from a creative family; her brother is cartoonist, Michael Leunig.
In the 1980s she had books published. For many that was the last they heard from her.
However, Mary never stopped drawing.
Now her work is more political and personal than ever. So much so that her expression has come at a cost.
