At AAIA we are proud of our relationship with the Aboriginal artists we work with. We are fortunate to be positioned in an area of Darwin that is in close proximity to several key Indigenous art sites. As such, we are able to see artists at work as they create dramatically rich visual stories. Their entire artistic practice is informed by the forty thousand year Dreamtime histories and the diverse stories that have come out of the peoples of our great land. You can even watch the process of an Aboriginal artist at work, whilst being in our gallery. On occasion some artists prefer to paint in our gallery. And due to our years of experience working with Aboriginal artists we can advise if you like a certain type of artist other paintings they have painted.
