’New Work’ shares the distinct visions of Sylvia Kanytjupai Ken, Tjungkara Ken and the Ken Sisters Collaborative, award-winning contemporary indigenous artists from Tjala Arts, in the remote Anangu Pitjantjatjara Yankunytjatjara (APY Lands) of South Australia.
Each of these artists paint, in different but related ways, the Seven Sisters creation story. This is an ancestral narrative of the Pleiades constellations (the sisters) and a sinister man (Orion) who followed them across earth and sky.
Exhibition can be viewed on our website from opening date. Artworks can be viewed in the gallery by appointment only, please contact the gallery at enquiries@janmurphygallery.com.au to make arrangements.
