Alice Springs and the Desert Art Institute

Artist: June Walkutjukurr Richards


Her most recent works feature single words or short phrases, revealing one of the first Indigenous voices working outside urban Australia to bring a critical perspective to the making and marketing of Indigenous art. Her works address potent subjects and confront the sensitive issues that arise in Indigenous communities surrounding the production and sale of art.
