Artist

Cungelella Art are Kalkadoon women made up of sisters Glenda McCulloch, Cheryl Perez, Jaunita Doyle and Dale Bruce. They are mothers, sisters, partners, business owners. The sisters tell the stories of their Kalkatungu homelands and share the colours, textures and history of their home. From a young age the sisters were surrounded by artists and creatives; from their grandparents to their uncles and aunties who enjoyed teaching them about carvings and paintings on different artefacts and traditional art of the region. They’ve taken this traditional knowledge to create a unique modern take on contemporary Aboriginal art that reflects the rugged ranges and native fauna and flora that surrounds their Kalkadoon home.
