In this work Janice depicts connections to country through her walka (design), referencing the landscape of the APY lands. Janice is an emerging painter working out of Iwiri Art Studio in Adelaide. Her paintings and ceramics experiment with colour and she is developing her own walka.

Janice was born in Kalgoorlie in 1976 and grew up in Wingellina with her parents. She then moved to Amata to raise her kids and work in the Amata school. Janice later moved to Adelaide to work at Iwiri in the Wellbeing Centre and is now an emerging painter, arts worker and translator.

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.
