Tjukula Tjuta (many rockholes) "People go out to the rockholes to get kapi (water) we know the names from a long time ago for all the rockholes, when it rains, we know there is big kapi in the rockhole and we can get fresh water."
For the Pitjantjatjara people living in the central and western desert, knowledge of the water sources was crucial to survival. The deep familiarity with their country ensured constant sources of water and food could be found and this intimate understanding of the landscape continues today. 'Tjukula' means rock-holes or waterholes. Anangu often protect these water sources by using rocks and spinifex to form a barrier to animals and, in more recent times, to protect from feral and stock animals.
Audrey was born in Ernabella, South Australia in 1967. She was a school teacher there for many years and now resides in Adelaide, South Australia. The Brumby family are from the Pitjantjatjara people and lands and speak the Anangu language. Audrey has been part of the Ernabella art collective and can remember when they were taught batik techniques in the 1980s as part of a cultural exchange. Some of her work reflects this early experience with a canting. She has been a productive and passionate painter and has displayed work at Tandanya and has major works installed at the AEU building (SA), Australian Taxation Office (SA), the Adelaide Hilton (in 2017) and in 2014 the historic Brookman Hall, UNISA, Adelaide. Audrey actively works as a Pitjantjatjara translator and has also illustrated a series of children’s books written in both English and Pitjantjatjara language. Her work reflects dreaming, country-flora, travel through Pitjantjatjara Yankunytjatjara Lands and bush tucker.
Iwiṟi was established by Aṉangu in 2018, many of whom had been forced to move to Adelaide due to chronic health conditions and lack of services in their home communities. Living far from their traditional homelands, Anangu were concerned about the cultural and social isolation they were experiencing and saw a need to act. Iwiri was formed initially to help retain, promote and transmit Anangu culture and language through the areas of arts, language, knowledge and community. Since then Iwiṟi has grown rapidly into an organization that delivers a range of programs that aim to strengthen and advance Aṉangu wellbeing.
Iwiri strengthens the Aṉangu community through cultural and arts activities, creating employment opportunities and enterprise development. We want our young people to be strong in their language and culture and to take up opportunities to work in our community.
All paintings come with a certificate of authenticity provided by the community-run Aboriginal Art Centre, not us, which is the gold standard for ethical purchasing and documentation.

All of our Desert Paintings, with the exception of the Stretched Desert Paintings Collection, are sent rolled.
Sending paintings rolled is the best option for their safe arrival and allows us to include free shipping, provide timely service, and maintain consistent and transparent pricing relating to the prices set by each Aboriginal Art centre.
The size of the painting listed relates to the painted surface. There is also a painted edge(2cm) and additional canvas for stretching.
A local framer will easily stretch the work for you at a nominal cost. Framers are everywhere and there is likely one just up the road. We recommend choosing one with good reviews and if you call ahead you will generally get a better-quoted price than if you turn up, painting in hand.

Authentizität, der Sie vertrauen können
Echtheitszertifikate sind zwar üblich, aber nur solche von gemeindebasierten Aborigine-Kunstzentren garantieren ethische Beschaffung und Dokumentation. Zertifikate, die von Galerien außerhalb der Gemeinde ausgestellt werden, spiegeln keine ethischen Praktiken wider, daher ist es wichtig, die Herkunft zu überprüfen.
Bei ART ARK® verfügt jedes Kunstwerk über ein Echtheitszertifikat des gemeindegeführten Kunstzentrums, in dem es entstanden ist. Erfahren Sie mehr über die Echtheit der Aborigine-Kunst .
Einrahmen von Aborigine-Kunst
Wir liefern die Kunstwerke so, wie sie aus den Kunstzentren bei uns eintreffen und gewährleisten eine transparente Preisgestaltung auf Grundlage der von den einzelnen Zentren festgelegten Preise.
*Der Versand großer, gespannter Gemälde kostet mehr als das Spannen selbst.
Rindenbilder und vorgespannte Kunstwerke werden montagefertig geliefert. Andere Leinwand- oder Leinenbilder können Sie problemlos bei Ihrem örtlichen Rahmenmacher aufspannen lassen. Aquarelle sollten hinter Glas gerahmt werden, entweder in einem maßgefertigten oder vorgefertigten Rahmen. Erfahren Sie mehr über die Einrahmung von Aborigine-Kunst .
