Reggie Uluru, artists and elders from Muṯitjulu celebrate opening night at Parrtjima. This year Parrtjima organisers have created a tribute to Reggie’s artwork and legacy as senior custodian of Uluru.
The Language of Wati Ngintaka (Perentie Lizard Man) is a powerful installation that shares Reggie’s Tjukurpa- an important story about living in balance with Country, caring for one another, and paying attention to the natural world.

Walkatjara Art at Parrtjima! ⭐️

We’re here in Mparntwe / Alice Springs for Parrtjima – A Festival in Light, coming together to see and celebrate Reggie Uluru’s tribute light show.
Reggie Uluru is one of the most senior living custodians and artists from Mutitjulu. His cultural knowledge and storytelling continue to guide generations. The story of Wati Ngintaka (Perentie Lizard Man) is one he holds deep cultural responsibility for — a story connected to his Country, his ancestors, and his role in keeping this knowledge strong and ongoing.

The Language of Wati Ngintaka (Perentie Lizard Man) is a powerful light show installation that shares important teachings about living in balance with Country, caring for one another, and upholding cultural connections with the natural world. These lessons are grounded in Anangu Law and continue to guide community life.

As you move through the installation, you walk among the giant Perentie forms, each carrying its own presence. Light and sound gently draw you into the story, creating space to slow down, listen, and reflect on the knowledge being shared.

We feel proud to be Mutitjulu artists here together, honouring Reggie’s story, his connection to Tjukurpa, and the legacy he continues to pass on. See you there!

Parrtjima, 10th -19th April. Illuminating the world’s oldest living culture.

LESS THAN A WEEK TO GO | Melbourne Art Fair 2026

Walkatjara Art is proud to present 8 significant canvases by Reggie Uluru, renowned artist & senior Uluru custodian, at this year’s Melbourne Art Fair.

Reggie Uluru carries the Wati Ngintaka Tjukurpa (Perentie Lizard Man story)— an ancestral story that shapes Country, cultural law and responsibility through the generations. When he paints, he sings. The rhythm of inma (ceremonial song & dance) lives in every mark, every glowing layer of earthy red, ochre and desert green. These works carry teaching, ceremony and story onto the canvas. Following his recent sell-out exhibition with D’Lan Contemporary in New York last October, we are honoured to bring his work to share with a home audience on this important platform.

Walkatjara Art exhibits as part of the William Mora Indigenous Art Centre Program (WMIACP), funded by the Australian Government through the Indigenous Visual Arts Industry Support (IVAIS) program and supported by Morgans Financial Limited. .australia. We acknowledge their generous support of the art centre.

From 19–22 February, the Melbourne Convention & Exhibition Centre becomes a meeting place for art, culture and conversation. We invite you to stand C8. Come and experience living Anangu culture through Reggie’s paintings.

✨ Big year ahead for our artists ✨

At the heart of Walkatjara Art is artist development and community strength. For the last four years artists have travelled to Alice Springs with Batchelor Institute to develop new skills in ceramics, silk painting, screen printing, and digital drawing. These workshops open new creative pathways: building skills, confidence, and fresh ways to share stories of Country and Tjukurpa.
In planning the next trips, it’s about remembering the growth is what art centres do and who we are—supporting Mutitjulu artists at home, then helping their work travel far. In 2026, you’ll see Walkatjara artworks at the National Indigenous Art Fair, Darwin Aboriginal Art Fair, and Melbourne Art Fair.

From community to the world 🌏
