OUR ART CENTRE
The Artists of Ampilatwatja community was established in 1999, 325km north east of Mparntwe (Alice Springs) in the Northern Territory. Ampilatwatja lies on Aherrenge country, the land of the Alyawarre people.
The work produced by our artists is unique and recognisably distinct from other Aboriginal artistic communities. The paintings pay homage to the significance and use of traditional bush medicine, allowing an insight into our community. We depict the traditional knowledge of dreaming and country through the translation of waterholes and soaks, bush medicines, mountains and sand hills.
LARRAKIA COUNTRY HERE WE COME!
It’s a hive of activity around the art centre as we finish off paintings and carefully pack our unique artworks ready for the journey to Darwin Aboriginal Art Fair 2025 (DAAF).
DAAF is the signature event from the Darwin Aboriginal Art Fair Foundation (DAAF Foundation), a not-for-profit Indigenous organisation that is owned and governed by the Art Centres it represents, that celebrates the rich cultural and artistic diversity of Australia’s Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Art Centres. DAAF features stunning art inspired by Australia’s most varied locations. From remote desert and coastal regions, to rural and urban communities.
The Fair offers a unique opportunity for arts industry buyers, and art and design lovers, to purchase works directly from Indigenous owned and incorporated Art Centres. A creative space for connection, where visitors can meet artists in person, learn about Australia’s rich diverse cultural groups and be immersed in our country’s evolving contemporary Indigenous art scene.
SAVE THE DATE: 7 – 10 AUGUST 2025

New work by Susan Ngwarraye Philomac 🌿
“Spring Creek is on my father’s Country… kwetyaylp (donkeys) and nantew (horses) come to drink there.”
Susan’s work is shaped by vivid memories. Walking to Canteen Creek, hunting with family, and collecting sap from sugar bag trees. These stories flow into her painting, layer by layer, with care and warmth.
