Two artists recount their intertwining journeys of friendship and resilience in the Central Desert through the medium of animation.
Arrernte and Southern Luritja artist Sally M Nangala Mulda and Arrernte and Western Arrarnta artist Marlene Rubuntja have developed their practice to be completely recognisable and representative of the place in which they live, Mparntwe/Alice Springs. Working from Tangentyere Artists and Yarrenyty Arltere Artists (art centres), these senior women have established themselves as two of Australia’s leading visual artists.
The third Artbank + ACMI Commission, Two Girls From Amoonguna, encompasses video, soft sculpture and paintings, with the centrepiece the animated work titled Arrkutja Tharra, Kungka Kutjara, Two Girls. Curated by Jenna Rain Warwick (Luritja), Two Girls from Amoonguna is an exhibition about two of Australia’s leading artists and their journey to get there.
