About Exhibition

Painting was originally a tool that the Spinifex people used to claim their birthright in a new world; it was a medium that did not require language to teach outsiders the sacredness of the Country they knew.

Through the Spinifex Arts Project, people have continued to pass this sacred knowledge on to the next generation of artists as a gift that allows the Spinifex people to safely exist between both worlds.

The senior artists in this exhibition have propelled the arts project to a place of international and domestic acclaim. Working in a sphere beyond the contemporary art scene produces works that lack pretence; rather, they represents Spinifex Law and a complete embodiment of place. The artworks coming from this remote community are of global significance and bring forth stories and tradition that has endured over 60,000 years.
