Tarnanthi - Ngura Pulka - Epic Country

Ngura Pulka – Epic Country centres around a 3 x 3-metre painting created by Mrs Matjangka Norris, a senior artist and law woman from Kaltjiti Community in the Aṉangu Pitjantjatjara Yankunytjatjara Lands. It includes a digital augmented-reality experience of Mrs Norris performing the inma (cultural song and dance) of the traditional story told in her artwork. The exhibition also features some of the most talented emerging artists from the APY Lands, who have created works in response to this key piece.
