Lockhart River Aboriginal Community is 850 kms north of Cairns and it is situated between a lowland rain forest and a spectacular beach named Quintell Beach. Traditionally, many of the clans from this area have lived close to the beach and it features as a common thread in many of the artists¡¯ work

The art from Lockhart River promotes the identity of Aboriginal people in contemporary Australian culture and is unique to Lockhart River Arts Centre. The artists express the strong influences of traditional culture and values in their world, and have developed their own forms of expression, with their work reflecting the sublime tropical landscape.

This group of artists from the remote, but stunningly beautiful country in far north Queensland are taking the art world by storm with their highly sought after paintings and objects, and this exhibition is without exception.

Alcaston gallery is thrilled to exhibit these vibrant and collectable paintings and objects from Lockhart River, Queensland.

Yours sincerely


Beverly Knight
