TJAPALTJARRI BROTHERS

A collaborative exhibition by Jamesy Collins and Sam Gledhill

Opening event Saturday August 22 from 10:30am.

Artists Jamesy Collins and Sam Gledhill collaborate in Tjapaltjarri Brothers - an exhibition showcasing their love of fine craftsmanship in a series of works that speak to their respective upbringings in Central Australia.

Jamesy uses traditional Anmatyerre craftsmanship to share his and his grandfather’s dreamings, carving boomerangs and animals from locally sourced mulga and river red gum roots. Sam, a sign-writer born in Mparntwe, sets the scene of his hometown, painting on scrap metal and glass collected from town and bush. Together, they have curated an exhibition that celebrates working both ways.

Join us for the opening Saturday August 22nd at 10:30am at June Marriott Gallery, Central Craft. Exhibition runs until September 5.
