Artwork Story

“This piece represents Kalkatungu Country, the spinifex crowns represent walking on and being connected to Country, the blues and brown to represent the different seasons we have here, the waterholes that have had their fill sustaining life. A journey line through the middle represents the journey for every young person is a story to be shared.”

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 our 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.
