- The Royal Tour
Like the images featured within The Royal Tour, the form and design cheekily reinterpret books (found by Namatjira in secondhand shops) commemorating the royal family. The cover typeface in particular provides a modern spin on the ancient serifs that were typically used in these kinds of publications.
‘… the works that populate Namatjira’s debut artist book The Royal Tour are as intimate as they are interventionist. Namatjira … places himself front-and-centre amidst the pageantry of various historical royal occasions, engagements and tours.’ (Perimeter Books 2020)
