12.01.2022 The Western Australian Indigenous Art Awards, now in its fifth year, is a celebration of the achievements of Australias Indigenous artists. It recognises the contribution artists make to Australia socially, economically and culturally. The model employed in the Western Australian Indigenous Art Awards is truly unique to Australia, with artists working closely with curatorial staff to select a body of works that best represents their art practices over the past two years. Clotilde Bullen, Curator of Indigenous Art at the Art Gallery of Western Australia, has been all over the country selecting works for the Awards in conjunction with the selected artists. This album communicates pictures and moments that Clotilde has shared with some of the 16 selected finalists; all from incredibly different areas of Australia.
