Established in 2005, Tangentyere Artists is an Aboriginal owned, not-for-profit enterprise for Town Camp Artists. Tangentyere is an Arrernte word meaning coming together, working together, and the artists represented here are from several different Countries and language groups.
Through their practice, Tangentyere Artists communicate stories about their history, identity, families and lives. They aim to highlight the everyday experience of Aboriginal people in Central Australia. Artists paint memories; true stories which are narrated in paint, weaving together diverse and shared experiences from this region. When sharing stories, Artists place themselves in the national conversation, working towards understanding and reconciliation.
