Opening event | Anya’s Puntawarri World! | Judith Anya Samson

Presented by Perth Festival in association with Martumili Artists and DADAA

Martu artist Judith Anya Samson creates work inspired by and connected to her life, family, and community. Her art is an invitation to step into Anya’s Puntawarri World: to go beyond the canvas and into an immersive multimedia experience of her personal history and cultural identity.

Puntawarri is an important cultural area located on the middle stretches of the Canning Stock Route and east of the Jigalong Mission (now Jigalong Aboriginal community), where Judith grew up. See and feel Judith’s iconic and graphic motifs of traditional cultural landmarks of tuwa (sandhills), waterholes, and emu tracks brought to life in vibrant interconnecting sculptures and tactile elements.

Opening event Friday, 7 February, 6pm - 8pm

Exhibition runs from 7 February to 1 March

Gallery hours:
Monday – Friday| 10am - 4pm
Saturday| 10am – 2pm
