Wanthiwa (hello) and welcome to our new look! We are very excited to share our new Juluwarlu Art Group logo and brand with everyone!
In 1998, Lorraine Coppin bought a cassette tape recorder to preserve the stories of Woodley King — a Yindjibarndi Elder — founder of Ngurrawaana Community between Millstream-Chichester National Park and Gregory Gorge — and her partner (Juluwarlu’s co-founder) Michael Woodley’s grandfather. From that first cassette tape, the Juluwarlu organisation and the Juluwarlu Archive was created.
Five years ago we started making art as a new way to preserve and share our stories and culture. Since then we've been exploring and expanding our multi-artform practices which now include painting, carving, artefact-making, digital media and puppetry. We began to grow so much that we felt we needed our own, new, sub-brand to communicate with you all.
This branding process has been an interesting and creative one for us, making us think about a lot of different things. We are still working on a new website which we hope to launch soon where you’ll be able to learn more about us.
Thank you very much to @studiopapa and @lotterywest for their support.
