  • About the Artists

    Our vibrant and dynamic artists are from the Utopia region; a large remote area of Central Australia which, until recently, had no government funded art centre. As a result of their pioneering efforts, they have one of the strongest and richest art histories.

  • Leaves by Gloria Petyarre

    60cm x 60cm

    This painting represents leaves, some of which have medicinal qualities. This style by Gloria Petyarre is one of the most prestigious styles in Australian art, winning her the acclaimed Wynne Prize in 1999.

    This subject does not pertain to stories from Gloria’s culture, but is an original idea.

     'That first one: I was looking, looking. Looks like leaf, and I been put another one and another one and, ah yeah, first leaf.'
