Hermannsburg Potters

The Hermannsburg Potters bring to life the vibrant landscape and spirit of Central Australia with their hand-crafted terracotta and underglaze pots. Taking inspiration from Country, culture, history and day-to-day life activities, the Potters depict family, birds, animals, bush tucker, mission days, stories of Country and current life in Ntaria (Hermannsburg), based at the remote foothills of the MacDonnell Ranges, 130 kilometres west of Alice Springs in the Northern Territory.

Now regarded as master ceramicists, the Hermannsburg Potters have been creating ceramic artwork in Ntaria since 1990 and have an extensive career exhibiting widely throughout Australia and internationally.
