TINGARI ARTS IS ONE OF TWO GALLERIES FROM WHICH WE SOURCE OUR INDIGENOUS WORKS. LINX REPRESENTS MANY HIGHLY REGARDED INDIGENOUS ARTISTS INCLUDING WALALA TJAPALTJARRI, JOSIE PETRICK KEMARRE & LINDA SYDDICK NAPALTJARRI. TINGARI ARTS IS A MEMBER OF THE INDIGENOUS AUSTRALIAN ART COMMERCIAL CODE OF CONDUCT AND THE ABORIGINAL ART ASSOCIATION OF AUSTRALIA. LINX HAS A PASSION FOR THE EXPRESSION OF ABORIGINAL CULTURE THROUGH ART AND GREAT CARE FOR THE ARTISTS SHE REPRESENTS.
“My day to day life became making breakfast and lunch for the artists and their families, prepare the Belgian linen, mix the paints and help them in their dealings with government organisations.
I was very proud my place became known as ‘the safe place’ and privileged to watch the artists create their ‘magic’ whilst listening to their amazing stories”
