Tarnanthi - Iriti-nguru nintini kuwari-kutu / Showing the past in the present

Ernabella Arts, on the Aṉangu Pitjantjatjara Yankunytjatjara Lands of South Australia, is Australia’s oldest, continuously running First Nations art centre. A key element of its longevity is the passing down of cultural knowledge from older artists and family members to the younger generations.

For Tarnanthi 2021, early-career, emerging and established artists present paintings and works in diverse media that highlight connections and knowledge-sharing between old and young. The participants include senior artist Carlene Thompson and emerging artist Janice Stanley, a third-generation Ernabella artist, who exemplify how older knowledge-holders have helped younger artists to develop their understanding, expertise and practices.
