Lockhart River Artists
The Lockhart River Gang have achieved considerable success in Australia and overseas.
The work of these young inspirational artists encompasses important belief issues such as kinship groups and community responsibility. This diverse range of subject matter involves traditional stories, laws and even good fishing spots.
The artists create works that are influenced by the rain forest and Coral Sea surroundings in which they live, along with traditional stories and contemporary issues within their community.
Artists from Lockhart River include, Rosella Namok, Samantha Hobson, Fiona Omeenyo, Josiah Omeenyo and Silas Hobson
Representing a new generation of indigenous art, the artists have made an impact on the Australian visual arts.
