Ernabella-ku Tjukurpa : STORIES FROM ERNABELLA
I am painting the landscape from above, as you might see it from an airplane or as a bird looking down. It is beautiful country both from on the ground and up above.
Michelle Lewis, Honey Ant Dreaming Story
NEW PAINTINGS AND CERAMICS FROM ERNABELLA ARTS, APY LANDS
Established in 1948, the Aboriginal- owned Ernabella Arts, is Australia's oldest art centre. Having successfully worked in a variety of mediums over 74 years, today's artists are a mix of older and younger men and women who continue their art centre’s evolution as a culturally strong contemporary art centre. Artists in the current exhibition include those well-established such as Alison Munti Riley, Atipalku Intjalki, Carlene Thompson, Yanji Dunn and Yurpiya Lionel. An exciting group of rising star painters and ceramicists including Daisybelle Kulyuru, Derek Jungarrayi Thompson, Elizabeth Dunn, Fiona Wells, Janice Stanley, Langaliki Lewis, Michelle Lewis, Mukayi Baker and Vivian Pingkayi Thompson.
Their works are both vibrant and varied. Senior artist Atipalku Intjalki’s brilliantly hued painting relates an ancient story of a men’s place in the far south-western desert; Yurpiya Lionel’s soft-hued paintings trace the underground courses of the caterpillar dreaming story; Lynette Lewis’s fine-lined works depict the wind-created ripples of sand dunes at a large hill and witchetty grub dreaming site called Warnikata near Ernabella while Michelle Lewis takes an aerial perspective of her grandfather's country as she traces the lines in the sand made by the honey ant.
