Pila Nguru: Art and song from the Spinifex People

These artworks present the stunning and detailed commentary of Spinifex Country by the Traditional Owners of the area, as part of a successful native title consent determination in Western Australia. This exhibition is a unique opportunity to contemplate the depth and cultural range of traditional attachment to land. In 2000, Traditional Owners from Spinifex country in the far east of Western Australia negotiated a successful native title consent determination. Paintings produced as documentation during the native title process supported the Native Title agreement. The historic agreement represented the fulfillment of a community vision, to be recognised as the rightful owners of the Spinifex area.
