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 Aboriginal 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.

A celebration of art, culture and storytelling from First Nations artists – 2026 Telstra National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Art Awards
Now in its 43rd year, Telstra NATSIAA continues to bring together artists from remote art centres to inner-city studios, with culture, storytelling and creative innovation converging to celebrate the very best of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander art. The Artists of Ampilatwatja are proud to be finalists and would like to congratulate all artists who entered.

New work by Beverly Pula Luck is now online.
Beverly paints therrpeyt, a tradition passed down to her by her mother. She lives in a home full of women who gather and make bush medicine from the Arreth plant. That connection to Country and to each other flows through everything she creates.

Today we spent the day at @ngvmelbourne and we enjoyed seeing amazing art by other mob.
We really enjoyed spending time @ngvmelbourne today. All the artworks in the ‘Mother’ exhibition were amazing.
New work by Alec Pula Lewis online now 🌿
Alec was born at McDonald Downs Station. He grew up there with his family living traditionally on the land.
Knowing your country is an important part of living in a remote community like Ampilatwatja.
Knowing when and where to go hunting and gathering, knowing where there is ‘soakage’ (where you can dig for water), travelling with family for ceremonies, and maintaining a connection with the land.
Available now via the link in bio.
