Le miel de la Terre - Tjala Arts

The exhibition "Le miel sous la terre" (Honey from the Earth) at Aboriginal Signature Estrangin gallery in Brussels showcases works from Tjala Arts, an art centre in Amata, Australia. The exhibition explores the cultural significance of the honey ant (tjala) and its connection to the land and Anangu traditions. It features art from multiple generations of artists, including elders who have passed and contemporary artists who continue their legacy.

The exhibition highlights the transmission of knowledge and stories across generations, focusing on themes of country, law, and ancestral narratives. Works by artists such as Mick Wikilyiri, Kunmanara (Ray) Ken, Wawiriya Burton, Yaritji Young, Maringka Tunkin, and Tjungkara Ken are presented, illustrating the diversity and continuity of the desert painting tradition.
