NGANAMPA KAMPATJANGKO UNNGU Beneath The Canvas gathers the powerful life stories of the Tjala Arts collective, giving collectors a rare window into contemporary Aboriginal art and culture straight from the artists’ own voices. Published in 2015, this illustrated hardcover celebrates the Anangu painters of South Australia and their vibrant desert canvas tradition.
Every page is alive with colour plates of landmark works and firsthand accounts that trace how painting has sustained community, Country and identity. Readers meet the makers behind the dots and lines, learning how each stroke carries ancestral knowledge, humour and resilience.
The dust-jacketed volume is in good, gently-read shape: pages are crisp, unmarked and firmly bound; only a small, neatly taped tear nicks the spine head of the jacket. It stands ready for display or study, free of smoke or library stamps.
Ideal for enthusiasts of Australian history, Indigenous biography and art-and-culture reference, this title enriches any shelf devoted to authentic First Nations narratives. Secure this scarce edition now and own the stories that pulse beneath the canvas.
