Tjarlirli Art
(Western Desert)
Tjarlirli Art and Kaltukatjara Art are two community-owned art centres located on either side of the border between the Northern Territory and Western Australia.
The Tjarlirli art centre is located in Tjukurla, a small community of around 50 people in the Ngaanyatjarra Lands. Tjukurla was established here in the 1980s due to its proximity to extremely significant cultural sites and the ancestral homelands of community members.
Kaltukatjara art centre is in Docker River, just across the border in the NPY Lands of the Northern Territory. It lies along stunning mountain ranges and river beds
